Ingredients
  

  • Cooking spray For greasing the cooling rack and baking sheet
  • ¼ cup all-purpose flour For coating the zucchini
  • 2 zucchinis cut into fries about 3 inches long (Zucchini fries)
  • 1 cup panko breadcrumbs For coating the fries
  • ¼ cup grated parmesan cheese For a crispy savory coating
  • ½ teaspoon Italian seasoning For added flavor
  • ½ teaspoon paprika For a mild kick
  • ¼ teaspoon salt For seasoning
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper For seasoning
  • 2 large eggs For the egg wash helps the breadcrumbs stick
For the dip:
  • ½ cup full-fat Greek yogurt For the base of the dip
  • 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar For tang
  • ½ teaspoon onion powder For seasoning
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder For seasoning
  • ½ teaspoon dried chives For flavor
  • ¼ teaspoon dried dill For flavor
  • ¼ teaspoon dried parsley For flavor
  • ¼ teaspoon salt For seasoning

Method
 

  1. Preheat the oven to 425°F. Place a cooling rack on top of a baking sheet and lightly spray with cooking spray.
  2. Place the flour in a large mixing bowl. Add the zucchini fries and toss until evenly coated with the flour.
  3. In a small bowl, mix together the panko breadcrumbs, parmesan cheese, Italian seasoning, paprika, salt, and black pepper.
  4. In a second small bowl, whisk the eggs until smooth.
  5. Working in batches, dip each zucchini fry first into the egg wash, then roll it in the panko mixture, pressing lightly to ensure even coating.
  6. Lay the coated zucchini fries in a single layer on the prepared cooling rack, ensuring there is space between each fry.
  7. Bake for 20–25 minutes, or until the fries are golden brown and crispy, flipping halfway through the cooking time for even crispiness.
  8. While the fries are baking, prepare the dipping sauce by whisking together Greek yogurt, apple cider vinegar, onion powder, garlic powder, chives, dill, parsley, and salt in a small bowl.
  9. Serve the hot zucchini fries with the creamy yogurt dip.
