- 2 cups grated zucchini
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 large eggs
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley

- Start by grating the zucchini and placing it in a clean kitchen towel. Squeeze out excess moisture.
- In a large bowl, combine the squeezed zucchini, flour, Parmesan cheese, eggs, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, salt, and parsley. Mix until well combined.

- Remove from the skillet and place on a paper towel-lined plate to absorb excess oil.
Notes
