Time 1h27m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

Peanut oil, for frying
3 large zucchini, cut into 1/2-inch rounds
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1 1/2 cups panko bread crumbs
1/4 cup finely grated Parmesan
2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh parsley leaves
1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
3 eggs, lightly beaten
1/4 cup water
1 cup sour cream
2 tablespoons buttermilk
1 medium shallot, finely chopped
1 tablespoon chopped chives
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
Dash hot sauce
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat oil in a deep-fryer to 350 degrees F.
  • Measure flour into a pie plate. In another pie plate combine panko, Parmesan, parsley, red pepper flakes and salt and pepper, to taste. In a third plate add eggs and water. Dredge the zucchini in the flour, followed by the egg and finally in the panko.
  • Working in batches, place the breaded zucchini slices in the hot oil and fry until golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes. Drain on a paper towel lined sheet tray and immediately season with salt and pepper. Serve alongside the zucchini.
  • For the sauce:
  • Add all the ingredients into a serving bowl and mix until incorporated. Cover with plastic wrap and let flavors marinate for at least 1 hour.

This recipe was a bit bland. I think I would add some more seasoning next time.

I'm not a big fan of fried food, but this recipe was surprisingly light and healthy. The zucchini was crispy and flavorful, and the breading was not too heavy.
