Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 F.
• Spray large baking sheet with oil cooking spray.
• Cut zucchini into slices, (about 1 1/2 inches by 3/4 inch).
• Toss zucchini in a bowl with the olive oil.
• Mix dry ingredients in a plastic bag.
• Place zucchini, a handful at a time, in the plastic bag, and shake to coat.

Steps:

• In a heavy saucepan or deep fryer, preheat oil to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• In a blender, mix the eggs, whipped cream, pepper and salt. Transfer the mixture to a medium bowl.
• Slice the zucchini into pieces 2 to 3 inches long. Dip the pieces into the egg mixture, then coat them with the bread crumbs.
• Carefully place the battered pieces in the oil and fry 3 to 4 minutes, until brown and crispy. Drain fried pieces on a paper towel. Repeat until all the slices have been fried.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
• Spray a cookie sheet with cooking spray.
• Place bread crumbs, cheeses, garlic powder, oregano, basil, parsley in ziploc bag; shake well to combine.
• Set aside.
• 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.
• Serve with warm spaghetti sauce or ranch dressing.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Arrange two racks evenly spaced in the oven. Line two sheet pans with parchment paper.
• Cut each zucchini in quarters lengthwise through the stem and then cut each quarter again in thirds lengthwise, making long skinny spears. In a medium shallow bowl, whisk together the pesto and 4 tablespoons of the olive oil and set aside. Place the parsley and garlic in the bowl of a food processor fitted with the steel blade and process until they are finely minced. Add the panko, Parmesan, red pepper flakes, 1 teaspoon kosher salt, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper plus the remaining 4 tablespoons olive oil. Pulse only until all the panko is moistened with oil. Pour the mixture onto a dinner plate.
• Dip the zucchini spears first into the pesto mixture, turning to coat completely, then place each one in the crumb mixture, pressing and turning to coat thickly. Arrange the sticks in rows on the prepared sheet pans.
• Roast for 20 to 30 minutes, until the zucchini is tender and the crumbs have crisped to a crunchy golden brown. Sprinkle lightly with flaked sea salt and serve hot.

Steps:

• Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Whisk buttermilk and eggs together in a shallow dish.
• 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:

• Wash zucchini, but do not peel, slice off ends. Cut into lengthwise strips, about 1/2 inch thick.
• Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Place zucchini on a paper towel. Let zucchini "sweat" while you prepare your other side dishes. Blot beads of water from zucchini with paper towels and proceed with recipe. (This allows for a more crispier fried zucchini.) Roll in flour. Beat egg and add one teaspoon of milk. Dip in egg mixture. Roll in mixture of cornmeal and flour.
• Fry on medium heat in vegetable oil until lightly brown and crisp on all sides. May shake with additional salt. Enjoy!
