Creating delicious fried zucchini is straightforward if you follow these easy steps:

1. Prepare the Zucchini: Wash and slice the zucchinis into ¼-inch thick rounds or sticks, depending on your preference.
2. Set Up Breading Station: In one bowl, place the all-purpose flour. In a second bowl, beat the eggs. In a third bowl, combine breadcrumbs with garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
3. Coat the Zucchini: Dip each zucchini slice first in the flour, shaking off any excess. Then, dip it into the beaten eggs, allowing any extra egg to drip off. Finally, coat the zucchini in the breadcrumb mixture, pressing lightly to adhere.
4. Heat the Oil: In a large skillet, pour enough vegetable oil to cover the bottom of the pan (about ¼ inch deep). Heat over medium-high heat until shimmering but not smoking.
5. Fry the Zucchini: Carefully add the breaded zucchini slices to the hot oil in batches, ensuring not to overcrowd the pan. Fry for about 2-3 minutes per side or until golden brown and crispy.
6. Drain Excess Oil: Use a slotted spoon to remove the fried zucchini from the oil, placing them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
7. Repeat: Continue frying the remaining zucchini slices, adding more oil if necessary.
8. Garnish and Serve: If desired, sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese and fresh herbs before serving.

Following these steps will guide you in creating a batch of crispy, flavorful fried zucchini that everyone will love!
