Crispy Fried Zucchini with Best Dipping Sauce

Fried Zucchini goes by many names; zucchini crisps, chips, or bites. Whatever you like to call them, one thing is certain – they are irresistibly good. You can never stop at just one, especially when you serve them with that irresistible zucchini dipping sauce (which is also super easy). Watch the video tutorial below and you’ll be craving them.

When zucchini season rolls in, we always have a surplus of zucchini from my Mom’s garden so we find creative ways to use them. Some of our favorites include Zucchini Fritters and Zucchini Casserole, but this Zucchini Crisps recipe is our kids’ favorite.

Fried Zucchini Recipe

It’s a winner! These fried zucchini chips have a perfectly crunchy outside that seals in all of the fantastic natural juiciness of zucchini. It even stays crunchy after it cools to room temp.

You’ll love serving these zucchini crisps with the (ridiculously easy to make) garlic aioli. It’s the same sauce we use for Chicken Patties and Shrimp Cakes. You will want to dip all of your fries and Popcorn Chicken into this sauce forever.

You’ll be happy to know that this recipe can easily be doubled or even tripled, but don’t forget to multiply the garlic aioli sauce, or you will be really disappointed when it is gone.

Ingredients

The ingredients for making fried zucchini are simple. You can actually use this same process to bread a variety of vegetables and even proteins like chicken. It’s a great recipe to have in your cooking repertoire.

  • Zucchini – you’ll need 1 1/2 pounds which is about 2 medium/large zucchini.
  • All-purpose flour – season your flour with salt and pepper to give flavor to your zucchini bites
  • Eggs – beat 2 large cold eggs until well blended for your egg dip
  • Panko bread crumbs – this is my favorite bread crumb for fried zucchini because it makes them extra crispy.
  • Oil – use a high heat cooking oil. My go-to is extra light olive oil.

For the Garlic Aioli Sauce

The ingredients here are so simple but it’s a winning combination for the best zucchini dip.

  • Mayonnaise – the creamy base for your sauce
  • Garlic – pressed or grate 1 medium/large clove
  • Lemon juice – please use freshly squeezed and not a concentrate version. It makes all the difference.
  • Salt and pepper – add these to taste. You don’t need much.

How to Make Fried Zucchini

Once you have your basic breading stations set up, the process moves quickly and you can bread 2 or 3 at a time if your bowls have enough space.

  • Create an assembly line: In the first bowl, mix together: 1/2 cup flour with 1 tsp salt and 1/4 tsp pepper. In the second bowl, beat two eggs with a fork. In the third bowl, add 1 1/2 cups Panko bread crumbs
  • Dredge zucchini – coat all sides of zucchini chips in flour.
  • Dip in egg washuse a fork to transfer zucchini into beaten egg, letting excess egg drip back into the bowl
  • Breading – coat zucchini in bread crumbs and set on a platter. Repeat with remaining zucchini rounds.
  • Fry – heat 1/4″ of oil in a large skillet over medium. Once the oil is hot (350˚F on a thermometer, or when a bread crumb sizzles), add zucchini in a single layer and saute for 3 minutes per side. Transfer to a wire rack set over paper towels and repeat with remaining zucchini.

Pro Tip: To elevate the taste of fried foods, as soon as the fried zucchini come out of the oil, sprinkle with kosher salt to taste. It gives the crispy exterior the perfect little salty bite. We do the same with Easy Chicken Kiev.

To Serve

We love this fried zucchini as an appetizer or snack. Pair it with the Garlic Aioli Dip recipe or these amazing dips and sauces:

Common Questions

Can I substitute a different squash?

Yellow squash works great as a substitution since it is similar in size and flavor to green zucchini.

Can I make Baked Zucchini Chips?

Fried zucchini can easily be made in the oven. Set breaded zucchini onto a rimmed baking sheet, spray both sides with cooking spray, and bake in the center of a preheated oven at 425˚F for 18-20 minutes or until golden brown and crisp.

Can I make Air Fryer Zucchini Chips?

It’s even easier in the air fryer since you don’t have to flip the zucchini halfway. Spray breaded zucchini on both sides with cooking spray and air fry at 370˚F for 10-13 minutes until golden brown and crisp.

Can I use different bread crumbs?

You can use an Italian bread crumb but we prefer the Panko Crumbs for the extra crunch.

Instructions

To Make Fried Zucchini Crisps:

  • Create an assembly line: In the first bowl, mix together: 1/2 cup flour with 1 tsp salt and 1/4 tsp pepper. In the second bowl, beat two eggs with a fork. In the third bowl, add 1 1/2 cups panko bread crumbs.
  • Dredge one of your zucchini slices fully in the flour mixture, tapping off the excess.
  • Next, use a fork to dip floured zucchini in the beaten egg mixture, turning to fully coat, and let the excess egg drip back into the bowl before transferring to breadcrumbs.
  • Move the zucchini to the bread crumbs bowl and coat all sides of the zucchini with crumbs. It helps to scoop the breading on top of the zucchini pieces so they are easier to flip and coat. Transfer to a platter and repeat with the remaining zucchini rounds.
  • Heat a large, non-stick, heavy-bottomed skillet over medium heat and add about 1/4" oil (enough to generously cover the bottom). Let the oil preheat to 350˚F on a thermometer or when a bread crumb sizzles in the oil then add breaded zucchini chips in batches in a single layer and saute 3 minutes per side or until golden brown on each side. If browning too quickly, reduce the heat. Once zucchini is done frying, transfer them to a rack set over paper towels and repeat with remaining zucchini. Serve warm with aioli sauce.

To Make Garlic Aioli Dip:

  • In a small bowl, combine 1/3 cup mayo, 1 pressed garlic clove, 1/2 Tbsp lemon juice, 1/4 tsp salt and 1/8 tsp black pepper. Stir to combine and serve.

    These were so yummy and crunchy. I made them as per the recipe the first time around to see if it needed any tweaks. In future I may try adding some parmesean cheese to the breading next time, and some herbs to the flour. But I was disappointed with the airfryer ones. I think maybe my airfryer is not as hot as some…they didn’t crisp up enough, and were pale compared to the stove top ones. I was surprised to find out that these are even good the next day cold. Still had a bit of crisp (just enough to keep them together) and the flavours were still great. One tip for future readers – I had some Duke’s mayo on hand, and I thought it was lemony on it’s own, so I skipped the lemon juice (didn’t have any in the house) and the aioli worked out great. Everyone loved it.

      Hi Wendy, I think they are best on the same day (within 3 to 4 hours of being made). They aren’t the same if you refrigerate them since they lose their crunchiness.

    Yumsters, big success at home, everyone kept coming back for “just one more zucchini.” This is a great recipe for both kids that do, and don’t, like to eat their veggies.
    I personally don’t like it when any sauce tastes too much like mayo, so for the sauce, I used a 1/4 cup mayo and added sour cream to get up to the 1/3 cup total, and then added 1 Tbsp lemon – this worked for my taste. Thank you for providing a foundation sauce recipe that I could play around with. I’ll be using this sauce for other stuff, too.
    Overall, this recipe is easy and delicious, with ingredients that I will likely have in my fridge on any given day.

    I was taught to take the zucchini and chill in salted ice water for anywhere from 30 minutes to one hour. Remove from water and pat dry. Then follow your directions. This makes them extra crispy.

      Hi Barb, Eggplant might work but you might cut the slices slightly thinner. Eggplant does tend to attract and absorb oil so they might seem oilier. I think this recipe will work better with zucchini but I haven’t tested the eggplant to say for sure. I’m now curious how breaded baked eggplant would taste!

        I also make these often with eggplant. I actually have found that the salting and letting rest first is unnecessary. Just slice and bread. When the second side is almost finished frying, I top the slices with a little chili sauce and fresh mozzarella cheese (or other mild cheese on hand) and cover for a few minutes until the cheese melts. Although we like the fried version best, it does also work baked in the oven with a little oil spritz.

    I am so happy you include the nutritional information for your recipes but there is no serving size! Can this be added so we know how much? Husband recently diagnosed with pancreatitis so we have to closely watch fat content. Appreciate the info and love your work. Thank you.

      Hi Sheilah! This recipe serves 6 people and the nutrition facts are per serving. I don’t have these measured out to see how many crisps would make 6 servings, and that would be dependent on how thick they are cut as well. You can measure the weight of crisps combined and divide that by 6 and that would be one serving. I hope that helps.

    Looks so delicious.I would probably use coating mix the flour and panko in separate plastic bags and add a little hot sauce to the raw scrambled eggs and beat them really well. I use peanut oil because there is less spattering when hot. I love so many of your recipes and want to thankyou for sharing them!

    I made then into “fries” and fried them in my air fryer. Spritz them with oil first, then air fry 400 degrees for 12 minutes.
    The sauce goes so well with them.
    Definitely will make again.

      Hi Margriet, I think they are best on the same day (within 3 to 4 hours of being made). They aren’t the same if you refrigerate them since they lose their crunchiness.

    If you soak the slices in ice water for about 10 minutes before dredging, they will be extra crispy (without burning) and won’t get soggy in the middle. I also use a meat fork to turn them. Works a treat!

    Thanks for your Zucchini bites page. I tried it today and these came out very well. The Garlic Aioli Sauce was the star, I feel. Breading for me too was bit of a mess, not good to dip the bites into the bread crumbs making it lumpy and quite unusable to coat. Will keep small portions of bread at a time or scoop it over each bite, next time. Thanks again.

      They are most crisp when fresh but to keep them crisp longer, I would suggest keeping them in a single layer and place them on a papertowel lined plate once they are out of the pan. To transport, transfer to a clean paper-towel lined plate keeping them in a single layer and do not cover them while they are warm or the steam will cause them to soften. Sounds like a fun group! 🙂

    Use forks in the egg wash and in the panko bread crumb bowls and your fingers won’t get crusty! Plus it makes them turn out more even 🙂

    Delicious though, I’ve made them twice already and I only discovered the recipe a week ago!

      Hi Shruti, I really haven’t tested any eggless substitutes but you might try using cream instead of egg to get a coating that will hold the bread crumbs on there. Melted butter may also work. Let me know if you test anything out.

      I think it would work if you sprayed both sides with cooking spray. Without testing it myself, I couldn’t really give you exact baking times.

      I just discovered and made this recipe and decided to try and bake them for a slightly healthier version of the recipe. They still tasted AH-MAZING and crisp like you pulled them out of a fryer!

      I prepared them the exact same way and placed them on broiler pan/rack making sure not to overcrowd the pan too much. I baked them at 425 for 12 minutes, then flipped them all over and then cooked another 8 minutes.

      You can use your own homemade breadcrumbs. I like the Panko breadcrumbs because they are a little larger than the kind that you can achieve at home using your food processor or blender. It will work either way.

      It works best with flour. If you have a gluten intolerance, you can use a gluten-free flour. It would still work without the flour but I think the breading would adhere better and oil would be less likely to get into the zucchini.

    To keep my fingers hands clean when breading, I tied forks or small tongs for each, one for flour, one for beaten egg mixture and one for bread crumbs. Both works, but forks work best for me.

    Natasha, would it make a difference if I put salt directly on them instead of in the flour? I know some water will come out of them. Will that make them soggy afterwards? I prefer them hard and crunchy but a few minutes after I fry them, they turn really soft or soggy. I tried making a thicker coating but it didn’t work. Please help, thanks.

      Putting salt directly on the zucchini might make them more moist especially if they sit for awhile with the salt on them. The method that I shared does not make them soggy at all. They are crisp on the outside and stay that way for a while after.

    Unbelievable! I followed the recipe exactly, except I only had 1 small zucchini so I halved it. They turned out perfectly crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside. SO GOOD! I only had a lime and used that for the ailoi. I just made these as a side for lunch and my husband said “I feel like I’m being fed like a king!!” Haha! I’m not the best cook in the world and pulled this off easily. Highly recommended!

      I haven’t tried baking them, but if you do, I’d suggest spraying them lightly with cooking spray and then baking. You might try at 375˚F for 15 minutes or until crisp on the outside and tender inside. Let me know how it goes. 🙂

    hello,

    I haven’t tried your recipe yet but it seems really good.
    I just have a remark, because I am French for the French Riviera home of Aioli.
    aioli based is an all dish in France made with white fish, potatoes, carots, Devils eggs and the salsa aioli which is garlic and oil (ai = garlic and oli= oil).
    So yes it’s correct to say garlic aioli, but you are repeating yourself…
    (I don’t want to be mean, I just want to explain what it means)

      I think they are best fresh or at least within a couple hours of making them. They don’t really get soggy fast, but they would probably soften up after refrigeration.

      To be honest, I haven’t tested the aioli sauce with any other ingredients. You could always serve it with a different sauce; even fry sauce! 🙂 You could give Greek Yogurt a try and then you’d have more of a tzatziki sauce 😉 https://natashaskitchen.com/2013/10/10/tzatziki-sauce-recipe/

      My son ate them with ranch too! 🙂 Eggplant … Hmm… They might work but you might cut the slices slightly thinner. Eggplant does tend to attract and absorb oil so they might seem oilier. I think this recipe will work better with zucchini but I haven’t tested the eggplant to say for sure. I’m now curious how breaded baked eggplant would taste!
