Zucchini Garlic Fritters These crispy and flavorful zucchini garlic fritters are perfect for a snack or appetizer, served warm with marinara sauce. Ingredients 1 cup shredded zucchini, drained well 1 clove garlic, grated fine 1/3 cup breadcrumbs 1/4 cup grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese 1 large egg 2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives (or 1 tablespoon dried chives) 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley (or 1/2 tablespoon dried) 1 teaspoon chopped fresh basil (or 1/2 teaspoon dried) 1 teaspoon chopped fresh oregano (or 1/2 teaspoon dried) Pinch of salt and pepper Marinara sauce for dipping Instructions Preheat the oven to 400?F. Lightly coat a baking sheet with olive oil or non-stick spray and set aside. Use a box grater to grate the zucchini into a clean towel. Roll up the towel and twist to wring out the moisture. Grate the garlic using the small holes on the box grater. In a medium bowl, combine the shredded zucchini, garlic, egg, breadcrumbs, parmesan, chives, parsley, basil, oregano, salt, and pepper. Mix well to combine. Shape a tablespoon of the mixture into your hands, pat into small balls, and place them on the baking sheet. Bake for 15-18 minutes in the preheated oven until golden. Serve warm with marinara sauce. This recipe makes about 16 fritters. Notes How to Freeze Follow the recipe and let the fritters cool. Place them in a single layer on a large baking sheet and flash freeze for one hour. Once the fritters are frozen, transfer them to a freezer bag. Store for up to 4 months in the freezer. Reheat by preheating your oven to 400?F. Place the frozen zucchini garlic fritters on a baking sheet and bake until heated through and crispy on the outside, about 10 to 15 minutes.
