If you're looking for something different to do with your garden surplus of zucchini, one bite of these Fried Zucchini Straws and you'll be hooked. Ingredients:
2 cups all-purpose flour |
1 teaspoon paprika |
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder |
1 tablespoon kosher salt, divided |
4 large eggs, lightly beaten |
4 cups panko (japanese breadcrumbs) |
4 tablespoons all-purpose flour |
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano |
1/4 teaspoon black pepper |
2 medium zucchini (about 1 lb.), cut into 1/4-inch-thick strips |
canola oil |
1 cup grated parmesan cheese |
Directions:
1. Combine 2 cups flour, next 2 ingredients, and 1 tsp. salt in a shallow dish. Whisk together eggs and 3 Tbsp. water in another dish.
2. Process breadcrumbs in a food processor 10 to 15 seconds or until finely ground. Combine breadcrumbs, 4 Tbsp. flour, oregano, pepper, and remaining 2 tsp. salt in a third shallow dish.
3. Dredge zucchini, in batches, in flour mixture; dip in egg mixture, and dredge in breadcrumb mixture.
4. Pour oil to depth of 2 inches into a Dutch oven; heat over medium heat to 325°. Fry zucchini, in batches, 1 to 2 minutes or until golden. Drain on a wire rack over paper towels. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese.
