Mmm, scrumptious! 9 years later and it’s still a crowd-pleaser! I’m always getting requests to bring this dish (Page 1 ) | May 15, 2025

Ever encountered an overwhelming harvest of zucchinis and felt utterly bewildered about their utilization? Believe me, I’ve been in that predicament! Last summer, my garden zucchinis were virtually commandeering the kitchen counter. That’s when ingenuity struck, leading to the creation of these golden, garlicky morsels of delight—Zucchini Garlic Delicacies. These bites are not merely a delectable way to incorporate vegetables into your diet, but they also serve as an impeccable appetizer or a side dish to elevate your main course.

These morsels are exceedingly adaptable. Arrange them on a platter with zesty marinara sauce for dipping, and witness their rapid disappearance at your next social gathering. They also complement a crisp green salad marvelously or serve as a delightful accompaniment to a comforting spaghetti dinner. Looking to transform it into a meal? Pair them with grilled chicken or fish for an added protein boost.

Ingredients

Ingredient Quantity
Zucchinis (medium) 2, grated
Parmesan cheese 1/2 cup, grated
All-purpose flour 1/2 cup
Garlic 2 cloves, minced
Egg (large) 1, beaten
Dried basil 1 teaspoon
Dried oregano 1 teaspoon
Salt and pepper To taste
Olive oil (for frying) 2 tablespoons
Directions

Begin by extracting the excess moisture from your grated zucchini using a clean kitchen towel—this is the key to achieving those extra crispy bites.
In a large bowl, amalgamate the dry zucchini with grated Parmesan, flour, minced garlic, beaten egg, dried basil, dried oregano, and a dash of salt and pepper until thoroughly combined.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. As the skillet warms, form the zucchini mixture into small patties.
Once the oil is hot, fry the patties in batches until they attain a beautiful golden brown hue, which should take about 2 to 3 minutes per side.
Transfer the cooked bites onto a paper towel-lined plate to absorb any excess oil.
Serve hot and crispy!
