Crispy Zucchini Rounds With Dip Recipes

Steps:

• Heat oil in frying pan over medium heat.
• Place 3 shallow dishes out. In the first one, stir cornmeal and crushed bouillon together. In next dish, mix egg and milk. In the last dish, mix breadcrumbs and black pepper together.
• Place a few zucchini disks in the corneal and shake to coat. Add zucchini to egg mixture and flip over to coat. Lastly, place zucchini in breadcrumb mixture and shake to coat. NOTE - It's best to use a fork to lift the rounds out of the cornmeal and breadcrumbs so your fingers don't get coated or remove the coating from the zucchini.
• Add zucchini to hot oil and cook for 2 minutes on each side or until golden brown. Remove rounds and place on paper towels on a dish.
• While you are waiting for zucchini to fry, mix together dip and set aside in a small dish.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Coat a baking sheet with cooking spray.
• Slice the zucchini into 1/4-inch thick rounds. In a medium bowl, toss the zucchini with the oil. In a small bowl, combine the Parmesan, bread crumbs, salt, and a few turns of pepper. Dip each round into the Parmesan mixture, coating it evenly on both sides, pressing the coating on to stick, and place in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
• Bake the zucchini rounds until browned and crisp, 25 to 30 minutes. Remove with spatula. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Place the zucchini into a colander in the sink, and lightly sprinkle with salt, tossing to coat. Let sit for 20 minutes, then pat very dry with paper towels.
• In a deep fryer or saucepan, heat 4 inches of oil to 375 degrees.
• Place flour, eggs and bread crumbs into three separate, wide bowls; season bread crumbs with salt and pepper. Dip each zucchini round into flour, then egg, then bread crumbs (repeat for an extra crispy coating). Working in batches, fry until golden-brown, about 2 minutes, turning once. Drain on paper towels. While warm, season with salt. Serve with lemon wedges if desired.

Steps:

• Set oven to 450 degrees (yes 450 degrees, or even a little higher if possible, this will create a crispy crust!).
• In a bowl mix together the panko bread crumbs with seasoned salt, black pepper, garlic powder, cayenne (if using) and Parmesan cheese.
• Place the egg whites into a shallow bowl.
• Dip the zucchini slices into the egg whites (letting any excess egg whites drip off).
• Coat the slices in the panko mixture (use fingers to firmly adhear the mixture to the slices if necessary).
• Place on a greased baking sheet.
• Bake for about 5-6 minutes; turn over and continue to bake for another 6-9 minutes, or until browned and crispy.
• As soon as the slices come out of the oven sprinkle with finely grated cheddar cheese if desired.
• Delicious!
