Notes

Healthy Breading option: For a healthy and low carb breading go for Almond flour instead of Panko Breadcrumbs. It's going to work perfectly fine and since it's so light it will make your Zucchini fries extra crispy.
Bake: You can Bake these Zucchini fries. Place them in a greased baking dish and bake @ 450F (220C) for 20-25 minutes.
Seasoning: You can change the Seasoning as per your choice. You can replace Italian seasoning with any other seasoning you love. If you love it a little spicy try this with Cajun seasoning or Taco Seasoning!
