Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425 F degrees. Prepare a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- I used 3 medium zucchini which i cut in half, then cut each half in half lengthwise,then each quarter in half again, so you end up with 8 sticks from one zucchini.
- Beat the egg in a shallow plate. Season the egg with salt and pepper. In another shallow plate mix the Panko breadcrumbs together with the Parmesan cheese. Season with salt and pepper.
- Dip each zucchini stick in the egg wash, then roll through the breadcrumb mixture, making sure each stick is fully covered with the breadcrumbs.
- Bake for about 20 minutes or until golden brown and crispy.
- Serve with Ranch dressing or Marinara sauce.
