Zucchini Fries

Zucchini Fries Recipe

Ingredients

• 2 medium zucchini
• 1 large egg, beaten
• 3/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
• 1/4 tsp garlic powder
• 1/4 tsp black pepper

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 425^◦ F.
2. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
3. Cut each zucchini in half lengthwise 4 times (to make eight long sticks from each). Then cut the sticks once crosswise, making 16 sticks from each, approximately 4″ long and 1/2″ thick.
4. Pat zucchini sticks dry with paper towels.
5. Prepare two shallow plates – one with 1 beaten egg and one with a mixture of 3/4 cup grated parmesan cheese, 1/4 tsp garlic powder, and 1/4 tsp black pepper.
6. Dip each stick in the egg, shake off the excess, then press into the parmesan mixture, coating all sides. (Use one hand for the egg and the other for the parmesan, to avoid getting too much egg in the parmesan which will make it clumpy.)
7. Place on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer without touching.
8. Bake for about 20 minutes, flipping the sticks and rotating the pan halfway through, until fairly dark golden.
