Ingredients

For the baked zucchini fries:

  • a little olive oil, for preparing the sheet pan
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 tablespoons nonfat milk
  • 2 large zucchinis, cut into 4-inch sticks
  • 1 ½ cups panko bread crumbs*
  • ½ cups Parmesan cheese, shredded
  • salt and pepper, to taste

For the yogurt dipping sauce:

  • 1 cup low fat Greek yogurt
  • 2 tablespoons parsley, chopped
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • salt and pepper, to taste
  • 1 scallion, chopped

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Prepare a large sheet pan with olive oil.
  2. Lightly beat the eggs and milk together in a medium bowl.
  3. In a separate medium bowl, stir the panko breadcrumbs and cheese together.
  4. Dip zucchini sticks in the egg mixture, making sure to coat them well. Dip the egg coated zucchini into the panko mixture.
  5. Spread out the coated zucchini pieces onto the prepared sheet pan. Season generously with salt and pepper and bake for about 15 minutes. Flip the zucchini sticks over with a spatula and bake for another 15 minutes, or until they are golden brown.
  6. Mix the Greek yogurt, chopped parsley and lemon juice together in a small bowl. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Sprinkle with the chopped scallion on top.
  7. Serve the yogurt sauce alongside the fries, for optional dipping. Enjoy!
