Ingredients
Scale
- 3 small zucchinis, cut into 3-inch sticks
- 2 eggs

- 3 dashes ground black pepper
- 2 cups Japanese panko bread crumbs
- ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
- Ranch dressing (for dipping)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (218°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a bowl, beat the eggs with salt and black pepper. On a large plate or container, mix the panko breadcrumbs with Parmesan cheese.
