Fried Zucchini Sticks Recipes

Steps:

• Pour enough oil into a large frying pan to reach a depth of 2 inches. Heat the oil over medium heat until a deep-fry thermometer registers 350 degrees F.
• Stir 1 1/2 cups Parmesan, the panko, and salt in a medium bowl to blend. Whisk the eggs in another medium bowl to blend. Working in batches, dip the zucchini in the eggs to coat completely and allow the excess egg to drip back into the bowl. Coat the zucchini in the panko mixture, patting to adhere and coat completely. Place the zucchini strips on a baking sheet.
• When the oil is hot, working in batches, fry the zucchini sticks until they are golden brown, about 3 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the fried zucchini to paper towels and drain.
• Arrange the fried zucchini on a platter. Sprinkle with the remaining Parmesan and serve.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
• Spray a cookie sheet with cooking spray.

• Cut each zucchini lengthwise into 8 pieces; cut each piece in half horizontally.
• Beat egg and milk in a shallow bowl.
• Dip each piece of zucchini in egg mixture then bread crumb mixture.
• Repeat until all of the sticks are coated; place them on prepared cookie sheet.
• Bake for 10-15 minutes or until brown and tender.

Steps:

• Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

• Mix flour, bread crumbs, Parmesan cheese, baking powder, and salt together in a separate shallow dish.
• Dip zucchini sticks into the egg mixture; roll in bread crumbs to coat. Dip in the egg mixture again; reroll in bread crumbs.
• Cook breaded zucchini sticks in batches in the hot oil until golden brown, about 3 minutes per batch. Drain on a large plate lined with paper towels.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spread olive oil on a large baking sheet.
• Mix water and soy flour together in a bowl to form a thick, pancake-like batter.
• Stir bread crumbs, herbes de Provence, garlic powder, salt, pepper, and cayenne pepper together on a shallow plate.
• Dip zucchini spears into the batter. Roll in bread crumb mixture to coat. Place spears cut-side down on the prepared baking sheet, all facing the same direction.
• Bake in the preheated oven until lightly golden, about 10 minutes. Turn to other cut side and bake for 10 minutes. Turn spears so they are skin-side down; continue baking until browned, about 5 minutes more.

• Bake on the center rack for 7-10 minutes. Turn the zucchini and coat any floury spots with cooking spray.
• Continue to bake until golden and just tender, about 5 minutes more.
• Serve hot.

Steps:

• Wash and trim zucchini, (DO NOT PEEL).
• Cut zucchini into about 2 1/2" long by 1/2" thick strips.

• Heat olive oil to 325 F to 350 F in a medium-size frying pan or use a deep fryer.
• Drop coated zucchini (a few at a time) in the hot oil and cook until lightly browned, about 2 minutes, turning once, (DO NOT OVERCOOK).
• Zucchini should be crunchy.
• Serve immediately with Bearnaise Sauce as a dip.
• SAUCE FOR DIPPING: Prepare contents of Bearnaise sauce according to package directions or make your own.
• NOTE: Instead of using plastic bags, place the flour mixture in a mixing bowl, and the crumbs in a separate bowl. This will not be quite as messy.
• Also, Panko crumbs would be excellent or cornflake crumbs.
