Yesterday I was in the fridge getting out veggies and came across 3 zucchini I had bought about a week ago. Zucchini only lasts for so long before it starts getting soft and gross. I had planned to use some in my homemade pizza today, but when I came across the recipe for Zucchini parmesan crisps I knew I had to make them for dinner tonight instead. This was one of my first 30 recipe pins. I kept telling myself I would make it, and kept putting it off. I was making breaded baked pork chops, and it seemed like a perfect side. And I wouldn't even need a starch to go with it.
Here is the recipe photo
And here is my version
These were awesome! The zucchini was a little softer than I would normally eat, but the coating added a good crunch and that made up for it. Panko breading is so light and airy, and the parmesan added a nice contrast. But I think it could definitely use more seasoning though. Salt, pepper, paprika and/or cayenne, maybe garlic & onion powder. Mix all that in with the flour. There's no green onion or chives in the recipe, but one of these is definitely in the final picture as a garnish. In the recipe photo it looks like the green onions were added before frying, but they burn. So I chopped up some spring onions (I've never bought chives) and put them on top as a garnish.
I will definitely be making these again. Soon.
