Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup of well-seasoned bread crumbs
  • 1/2 cup of finely grated Parmesan cheese
  • A teaspoon of flavorful garlic salt
  • Two large eggs
  • Five tablespoons of quality olive oil
  • A fresh zucchini, sliced into thin 1/4-inch pieces
  • One cup of deliciously shredded mozzarella cheese
  • One cup of warm spaghetti sauce, ready to be served (Can be optional)

Step 1

Combine a mixture of well-seasoned bread crumbs, freshly grated Parmesan cheese, and a hint of garlic salt in a shallow dish. In another dish, whisk the eggs until smooth and well-blended.

Step 2

In a large skillet, gently heat up some olive oil over medium heat until it shimmers slightly, ensuring it's not too hot.

Step 3

Start by dipping the zucchini slices into the beaten eggs, then coat them in the flavorful breadcrumb mixture before carefully laying them in the skillet in a single layer. Let the zucchini sizzle until they turn a beautiful golden brown, typically around 3 minutes. Flip them over and continue frying until they are cooked through and exhibit a lovely golden hue on both sides. Sprinkle some gooey mozzarella cheese on top of the zucchini slices and let it melt perfectly for an additional 1 to 2 minutes.

Step 4

When ready to plate, generously spoon warm spaghetti sauce onto plates and arrange the crispy zucchini slices with the oozing cheese on top. Serve and enjoy this delicious dish!

Extra Tips & Suggestions

  1. 1. Keep it Cool: Store your fresh zucchinis in the crisper drawer of your refrigerator to maintain their crispness and flavor.
  2. 2. Say No to Moisture: Line a storage container with paper towels to absorb any excess moisture and prevent your zucchinis from getting soggy.
