Ingredients

  • 3 zucchini medium
  • 1 cup panko breadcrumbs
  • ⅓ cup parmesan cheese grated
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • ½ teaspoon salt and pepper each
  • 2 eggs beaten
  • 1 cup all purpose flour
  • ½ teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • marinara sauce, dill dip, or ranch dressing for serving

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 425°F. Line a baking sheet with foil and spray with cooking spray. Set aside.
  • Cut zucchini into quarters lengthwise, then cut into thirds or quarters widthwise to create thick matchsticks
  • Prepare 3 bowls: in the first, combine panko, parmesan, Italian seasoning, salt and pepper. In the second, whisk two eggs with 2 tablespoons water. In the third, combine cayenne pepper and flour.
  • Working in batches of 4 at a time, coat zucchini sticks in flour, then egg mixture, then panko mixture, shaking off excess between dips. Arrange in a single layer on prepared baking sheet.
  • Bake zucchini sticks for 20-24 minutes or until breading is golden and zucchini is soft, flipping halfway through cooking.
  • Serve immediately with dipping sauce.

Notes

Use different hands while working with wet and dry ingredients to avoid breading hands.
