Fried Zucchini & Cheese

Method

Preparation and Cooking

1

Prepare the Zucchini

Slice the zucchini into 1/4 inch thick rounds and set aside.

2

Prepare the Breading

In a bowl, whisk together flour, cornmeal, salt, and black pepper.

3

Prepare the Egg Mixture

In another bowl, beat the eggs with milk until well combined.

4

Coat the Zucchini

Dip each zucchini slice into the egg mixture, then coat with the flour and cornmeal mixture.

5

Fry the Zucchini

Heat vegetable oil in a deep skillet over medium-high heat. Fry the zucchini slices in batches until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes per side. Remove and drain on paper towels.

6

Fry the Cheese

For cheese bites, scoop small amounts of shredded cheese and drop them into the hot oil, frying until golden and crispy, about 1-2 minutes. Drain on paper towels.

7

Serve

Arrange the fried zucchini and cheese on a serving platter and serve with ranch dressing on the side.
