Parmesan Fried Zucchini

An online recipe with instructions for making Parmesan Fried Zucchini. Also known as the 32nd Street Cafe Fried Zucchini.

Ingredients

- 6 medium size zucchini, sliced thin
- 3/4 cups of flour
- 3/4 cups of buttermilk
- 3/4 cups of milk
- 1 (9-1/2 ounce) package of cracker crumbs
- oil for deep frying
- 1 cup of grated parmesan cheese
- Salt to taste

Instructions

PREPARE TO DREDGE: (1) Place the flour on a paper plate, pie tin or other flat container. (2) Place the cracker crumbs on a paper plate, pie tin or other flat container. (3) In a bowl, mix the milk and buttermilk.

DREDGE THE ZUCCHINI: (1) Dredge each zucchini slice in flour until it is completely coasted. (2) Dip each zucchini slice in the milk mixture. (3) Dredge the flour and milk coasted zucchini in the crumbs to coat completely.

DEEP FRY THE ZUCCHINI CHIPS: Heat the oil to 400 degrees in a pan large enough for the zucchini to float in the oil (it's easiest to determine the temperature in an electric skillet with a temperature gauge, but you can also use an external cooking thermometer.) Deep fry the zucchini slices a portion at a time so they will not be too crowded in the pan, because crowding them can reduce the temperature below 400 degrees. Cook them for 3 to 5 minutes or until they are golden brown. Drain on paper towels. Sprinkle with parmesan cheese and salt to taste.
