Easy to make and super crunchy, zucchini parmesan crisps are just like the ones served in pizzerias! Serve them with marinara or buttermilk ranch. Perfect for snacking or an appetizer!
Ingredients
- 1/3 cup flour all purpose or white whole wheat
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/4 teaspoon paprika
- 1 jumbo egg
- 1/2 tablespoon milk
- 1 cup panko breadcrumbs regular or whole wheat - I used half and half
- 1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
- 2 zucchinis cut into 1/4-inch thick slices
- Oil for frying
Instructions
- Heat at least 2 inches of oil in a skillet over medium-high heat.
- In a shallow baking dish, combine the flour, salt, garlic powder, and paprika. In a second dish whisk together the egg and the milk. In a third dish, combine the panko and the parmesan cheese.
- Work in batches, dredge the zucchini slices in the flour mixture, then the egg mixture, and finally the panko/parmesan coating.
- Add the coated zucchini to the frying pan. Do not over crowd the skillet, fry 4-5 zucchini slices at a time. Fry the slices about 1 minute on each side, they should be golden and crispy. Transfer fried zucchini crisps to a plate lined with a paper towel.
Serve with marinara sauce or buttermilk ranch for dipping.
