Crispy Fried Zucchini in 20 Minutes
Ingredients
  • 2 medium zucchini, trimmed
  • 2 large eggs, beaten
  • 1 sleeve buttery round crackers (such as Ritz®), crushed
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • salt and ground black pepper to taste
Instructions
1
Slice the zucchini into thin, parallel strips, cutting it across its length to create uniform pieces.
2
Dip each zucchini slice into a beaten egg, then coat it evenly with cracker crumbs on both sides, pressing the crumbs gently onto the zucchini to secure them.
3
Gently remove any excess crumbs and arrange the coated zucchini slices in a single layer on a plate, making sure not to overlap or stack them.
4
Heat a generous amount of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat, allowing it to simmer and become hot enough for frying.
5
Carefully add the coated zucchini slices to the skillet, where they will be pan-fried until their crust is golden brown and they are tender and soft, taking about 3 minutes per side to achieve this.
6
Sprinkle the cooked zucchini with salt and pepper to enhance its flavor.
