Ingredients:
- 2 medium zucchinis
- 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1/2 cup breadcrumbs (preferably panko for extra crunch)
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano (optional)
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 1 egg
- Olive oil spray (for a lighter option) or 1-2 tablespoons of olive oil (for a richer version)
Optional Additions:
- Fresh parsley for garnish
- Crushed red pepper flakes for a hint of spice
- Lemon zest for a citrusy kick
- A drizzle of balsamic reduction to enhance the flavor
- Grated mozzarella or another cheese for a cheesy variation
- A sprinkle of Italian seasoning for extra flavor
Tips for Success:
- Choose fresh zucchinis: Fresh, firm zucchinis will yield the best texture and flavor. Avoid ones that are too large or overripe, as they can become watery and lose their crunch.
- Use panko breadcrumbs: Panko breadcrumbs create a crispier texture than regular breadcrumbs.
- Don’t overcrowd the pan: Space the zucchini slices evenly to ensure they crisp up nicely.
- Try baking instead of frying: To make this dish even healthier, bake the zucchini slices at 425°F (220°C) for about 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway through.
- Make sure to season generously: Zucchini itself is relatively mild in flavor, so be sure to season the breading with salt, pepper, and any desired spices to enhance the overall taste.
