Fried Zucchini is a classic autumn dish loved by almost everyone. Zucchini is an extremely nutritious vegetable that can be prepared in many ways. The fried version is particularly popular because the breaded golden-brown crust is a perfect contrast to the soft interior of the zucchini.
This dish is ideal as a side dish, but it can also stand alone as a main course. Fried zucchini is easy to prepare and quickly satisfies the whole family. It can be served with a variety of sauces and makes a perfect meal with a fresh salad. It goes well with stews or can be enjoyed as a standalone dish.
Peel the zucchini and slice it thinly.
Salt the zucchini slices and let them sit for 10 minutes to release excess moisture.
Pat the slices dry with paper towels, then season with black pepper to taste.
Dredge each slice in flour, then dip it in the beaten eggs, and finally coat it with breadcrumbs.
Heat the oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Fry the breaded zucchini slices on both sides until golden brown.
Transfer the fried zucchini slices to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
Serve hot with a fresh salad, garlic sour cream, or your favorite dipping sauce.
