Ingredients

3 small zucchini, cut into french-fry shaped pieces
salt to taste
2 large eggs, beaten
1 cup panko bread crumbs
¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese
2 tablespoons Italian seasoning

Directions

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
Season zucchini with salt; set aside.
Place beaten eggs in a shallow bowl. Mix together bread crumbs, Parmesan cheese, and Italian seasoning in a second shallow bowl.
Dip zucchini in beaten eggs, then press into bread crumbs to coat. Gently toss between your hands to remove excess bread crumbs. Arrange breaded zucchini in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
Bake zucchini in the preheated oven until golden brown, about 15 minutes.
