Equipment

Ingredients

  • 2 medium zucchini
  • ½ cup panko breadcrumbs
  • ¼ cup grated parmesan cheese
  • 1 tsp oregano
  • 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
  • 1 tablespoon Olive oil
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

  • Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C) for about 5 minutes.
  • Wash the zucchinis and cut them into sticks, about ½-inch thick and 3-4 inches long.
  • In a shallow dish, mix the breadcrumbs, grated parmesan cheese, oregano, paprika, salt, and black pepper.
  • Coat the zucchinis sticks nicely with panko mixture. Press the breadcrumbs onto the zucchini to ensure they stick well.
  • Place the coated zucchini sticks in a single layer in the preheated air fryer basket. Make sure they are not touching each other, so they cook evenly.
  • Lightly spray the zucchini fries with cooking spray or drizzle them with a little olive oil to help them crisp up even more.
  • Cook the zucchini fries in the air fryer for about 8-10 minutes, flipping them halfway through the cooking time. Cook until they are golden brown and crispy.
  • Once they are done, remove the zucchini fries from the air fryer and serve them immediately.
  • You can enjoy them as is or serve them with your favorite dipping sauce.

Notes

  • Remember that cooking times may vary depending on your specific air fryer model, so it's a good idea to check on the fries periodically to ensure they don't overcook.
  • Cook in batches if you'd like to cook more, and then finish off by heating everything through in the air fryer.
