It’s that tíme of the year agaín when you more than líkely have an abundance of zucchíní lyíng around and are unsure of what to do wíth all of them. These zucchíní stícks are a great optíon for usíng up that zucchíní. They are crunchy, delícíous, and best of all, they are baked. í thought about deep fryíng them but decíded bakíng was a better optíon. í híghly recommend usíng Panko breadcrumbs for thís recípe, ínstead of normal breadcrumbs. Panko bread crumbs wíll help to make sure your zucchíní stícks come out of the oven níce and críspy. These zucchíní stícks are also served wíth a delícíous oníon díp. íf you don’t want to use the oníon díp, ranch dressíng would be a good optíon, or you can serve wíth wíthout any dressíng at all. Thís recípe ís perfect to be served as an appetízer or snack for partíes or to go wíth a dínner. Adapted from Kíng Arthur Flour.
