Ingredients
Scale
- Sriracha ranch dressing (recipe here:)
For the crunchy coating:
- 2 cups whole wheat (or gluten free) breadcrumbs
- 1/2 cup cornmeal
- 1/2 teaspoon granulated garlic
- 1 cup grated sharp cheese (I used a mix of Gruyere and Asiago, but Parmesan or Romano would also be wonderful)
- 2 teaspoons Red Robin Seasoning
- 1 Tablespoon finely chopped fresh herbs (I used a mix of basil, rosemary & tarragon)
For the fries:
- 1 medium/large zucchini
- 1 egg
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400 F. Spray a large baking sheet with cooking spray or brush with oil.
- Prepare the dipping sauce. Set aside.
- Toss together the breading ingredients. Pour into a flat bowl and set aside.
- Spiralize the zucchini with a smaller blade to make little “shreds” of zucchini. In a separate small bowl, whisk the egg until frothy. Pour the egg over the zucchini noodles and toss until they are all coated. Cut the zoodles a few times so they are not TOO long.
- Using tongs, lift a few zoodles from the bowl, letting any excess egg or moisture drain a bit, then set them into the breading. Sprinkle with breading to make sure all the zoodles are coated.
- Set the coated zoodles on the prepared pan. Repeat until the pan is filled, making sure to give the zoodles a little space so they have room to get crispy.
- Bake at 400 for 8 – 12 minutes or until the zucchini fries are golden brown and crispy. Enjoy while they are hot, with the dipping sauce.
Notes
If you have any excess breadcrumb mixture, put it into an airtight container and freeze it for topping or coating fish, chicken, casseroles or veggies.
