Ingredients:
1 large zucchini 1/2 cup flour 2 egg whites 1/2 cup fine bread crumbs 3 deep pans – for dipping 1 cup extra virgin olive oil saute pan tongs
Method:
- First, get your olive oil hot and ready to fry. Place your cup of olive oil into your saute pan on medium heat to 350 degrees.
- While your oil is heating up, cut your zucchini into 1/4 -1/3 of an inch slices and set aside.
3. In 3 separate pans, add your flour, egg whites, and bread crumbs to each. Line them up in a sort of assembly line for your zucchini. 4. Dip your sliced zucchini into the flour, then egg whites, then bread crumbs.
- Carefully place your coated zucchini into the hot oil and let fry for 3 or so minutes per side. I like to use a splatter cover to my frying pan, helping keep me oil burn free.
- Using your tongs, place your fried zucchini onto a paper towel lined plate to cool.
