AIR FRYER ZUCCHINI FRIES

Steps:

• Cut zucchini into two or three 3-inch pieces, then spiralize each piece.

• Combine flour, oregano, garlic powder, and pepper in a second shallow bowl. Stir together panko bread crumbs and Parmesan cheese in a third bowl.

• Place egg in a separate bowl.
• Dip each zucchini stick in egg and then dip into the Parmesan mixture, making sure all sides are well coated.
• Place zucchini fries in a single layer inside the air fryer basket. You will have to do this in batches since all the zucchini fries will not fit into the Air Fryer basket at once.

• Cook for 9 to 10 minutes, or until golden and crispy.
• Remove from air fryer and serve.

BAKED PARMESAN ZUCCHINI CURLY FRIES

• Coarsely chop zucchini noodles into 5- or 6-inch-long pieces. Working in batches, dredge the noodles in the cornstarch; shake off excess. Dredge in the egg whites; shake off excess. Dredge in the panko mixture; shake off excess. Arrange the noodles, well spaced apart, in a single layer on the prepared baking sheets. Coat with cooking spray.
• Bake until golden and crispy, 10 to 12 minutes. Remove from oven; sprinkle with salt.
• Combine ranch and marinara in a shallow bowl; serve alongside the fries.

BEER-BATTERED ZUCCHINI CURLY FRIES

Steps:

• Use the widest setting on a vegetable spiral slicer and turn the zucchini into ribbons. Stop every couple of turns to cut the ribbons into 2 to3-inch pieces.
• Whisk together the flour, beer, lemon zest and 1 teaspoon salt in a medium bowl.
• Heat about 2 inches of oil in a large Dutch oven over medium heat. Attach the deep fat fry thermometer and bring the oil to 375 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with a double layer of paper towels and keep it nearby.
• Working one small handful at a time, add the zucchini curls to the beer batter and use tongs to toss and coat (like tossing spaghetti in sauce!). Pick up the battered curls a few at a time with the tongs and let as much excess batter drip off as possible. Being careful of the hot oil, drop the battered zucchini into the hot oil. Use a second pair of tongs or a slotted spoon to turn and help move the zucchini around, separating the pieces as best you can while they fry. Fry until golden brown on both sides, 2 to 3 minutes total. Transfer to the paper-towel lined baking sheet. Continue to fry in small batches. Serve hot (you can reheat in a 325 degrees F oven if needed).

KETO ZUCCHINI FRIES

Steps:
