Ingredients
  

2 medium zucchinis, cut into fry shapes

1 cup panko breadcrumbs

1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon onion powder

1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika

1/4 teaspoon black pepper

2 large eggs

1 tablespoon olive oil

Salt to taste

Instructions
 

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.

    Prepare the zucchini by trimming the ends and cutting them into long, thin strips resembling fries. Pat them dry with a paper towel to remove excess moisture.

      In a shallow bowl, combine the panko breadcrumbs, grated Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, black pepper, and salt. Mix well to ensure even distribution of seasonings.

        In another bowl, beat the eggs with olive oil until well combined.

          Dip each zucchini fry into the egg mixture, allowing any excess to drip off, then roll it in the breadcrumb mixture until evenly coated. Place the coated fries onto the prepared baking sheet in a single layer.

            Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the fries are crispy and golden brown.

              Once baked, remove from the oven and let them cool slightly before serving.

                  - Presentation Tips: Serve the fries hot with a side of marinara sauce or a tangy yogurt dip for an extra flavor boost. Arrange them in a cone shape or in a rustic basket lined with parchment paper for an appealing look!
