Around here in my family - it is well known that Vegetables are not my most favorite food - but the veggies I do like.... you will eat them over and over and over again and possible for more that one meal that day.... but they still keep coming back... So I must not have scarred them too badly!
(except my dad.... he's boycotting broccoli!)
One of those veggies I love - Zucchini!! and the garden is starting to produce! I used to make these zuke fries in the oven - and we hated how hot the house got!! and then!! An Air fryer arrived to my door!! and Viola!! I was back in business.
These are so easy to make!
( Disclaimer - the first time I made these I sliced the zukes into 4 in x 1/2 inch slices.. now I am too lazy and too hungry )
Step one - cut your Zucchinis!! I sliced them in half. Then sliced the half into halves and then cut them into chunks.
Now - I have tried them two ways now - the first was labor intensive - and a little more messy
I dipped each stick in Egg, then rolled in Parmesan then air fried - And they were yummy - believe me!
But this way To me is Just as Yummy, not as messy and is truly a one pot way - I stick the bowl in the dishwasher - and bam! Dishes are done!
Enjoy!!!
Thank you for that recipe! Of course we have the air fryer and zucchini in our fridge but no parmesan - wouldn't you know it! Years ago we frequented a restaurant that served very thin deep fried zucchini "strings" which we dipped in ranch. It was the first time my husband had ever agreed to eat zucchini, and he LOVED them and still talks about them. I think if I slice as thin as possible he might eat them, but again, "labor intensive", which I try to avoid.
ReplyDeleteSounds yummy and easy! I also make them in the oven but now I see I can make them in my air fryer!
ReplyDeleteSounds just delicious!!!!! Thanks for the walk through for cooking them!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for the recipe, will definitely try!
ReplyDeleteSounds delicious! Always looking for another great way to use all that are coming in!!!
ReplyDeleteI don't have an air fryer, but I bet I could come close just sauteing with the same ingredients. My son is growing zucchini, and we eat it almost every night right now.
