Bread the Zucchini
Dip each zucchini strip first into the flour, then into the egg, and finally coat it with the breadcrumb mixture. Set the coated zucchini aside on a plate.

Heat the Oil
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat until hot.

Fry the Zucchini
Carefully place the breaded zucchini strips into the hot oil, frying in batches to avoid overcrowding. Fry until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes per side.
