CRISPY FRIED ZUCCHINI

Steps:

• Heat the oil: In a large skillet.
• Combine the dry ingredients: Mix the breadcrumbs together with the salt and pepper. Add the flour to a large shallow plate and beat the eggs in another shallow plate.
• Prep the zucchini: Dredge the zucchini rounds through the flour first, dip into eggs, and finally dredge into the breadcrumb mixture, pressing to coat.
• Finish the dish: Fry the zucchini rounds until golden brown on both sides. Repeat until all the zucchini slices are breaded and fried.

ZUCCHINI PARMESAN CRISPS

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.

FRIED ZUCCHINI COINS

Steps:

• Line a dish with paper towels and set aside. Whisk the cornmeal, flour, basil, salt, cayenne, and pepper in a bowl.
• Beat the eggs in another bowl.
• Heat 1/4-inch vegetable oil in a skillet over medium heat until hot but not smoking.
• Working in small batches, toss the zucchini coins in the eggs, then coat in the cornmeal mixture to cover completely. Carefully drop the zucchini into the oil, and fry until golden brown, about 2 minutes on each side or until crisp. Remove from the oil with a slotted spoon and place on the prepared plate. Season with salt, cool slightly and serve.
