Crispy Baked Zucchini Fries with Spicy Chipotle Aioli
25 mins prepServes 4
Crunchy on the outside, tender on the inside, and packed with delicious garlic parm flavor! These baked zucchini fries are a healthier alternative to traditional fries, served with a zesty homemade chipotle aioli.
1. Preheat oven to 425°F and spray a foil baking sheet with a rack (if available) with nonstick spray.
2. In a bowl, mix together the panko, parmesan, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Pour the flour into a separate bowl and beat the eggs in a third separate bowl.
3. One at a time, dip the zucchini spears first in flour, then coat with egg, and finally coat with the panko breadcrumb mixture. Press the breadcrumbs on with your fingers; it's best to use a different hand than the one that went into the egg to prevent sticking.
4. Place the coated zucchini spears on the prepared baking sheet. Spray the tops with oil.
5. Bake for 20 minutes or until golden brown.
6. Remove from the oven and sprinkle with some minced fresh parsley on top. Serve and enjoy with the chipotle aioli or ketchup on the side.
