CRISPY ZUCCHINI FRIES WITH BUTTERMILK RANCH DIPPING SAUCE



Crispy Zucchini Fries with Buttermilk Ranch Dipping Sauce image

Provided by Tia Mowry

Categories     appetizer

Time 1h35m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

1/2 cup buttermilk
1/2 cup mayonnaise
2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives
1 tablespoon chopped fresh dill
1/2 teaspoon celery salt
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
1 cup flour
2 large eggs
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 cup panko
1/2 cup grated Parmesan
1 1/4 teaspoons garlic powder
3 medium (about 7-inch long) zucchini, cut into 1/2-by-3-inch sticks
Vegetable oil, for frying

Steps:

  • For the buttermilk ranch dipping sauce: In a bowl, combine the buttermilk, mayonnaise, chives, dill, celery salt, garlic powder and onion powder. Mix well. Cover and chill for 1 hour.
  • For the zucchini fries: Add the flour to a shallow baking dish. In a second baking dish, lightly beat the eggs with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper. In a third baking dish, combine the panko, Parmesan, garlic powder, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper; gently crush all the ingredients together with your hands--this will ensure an even coating on the zucchini.
  • Lightly coat the zucchini sticks in the flour and then dip into egg mixture, coating evenly. Gently shake to remove excess egg and then generously coat the zucchini in the panko mixture. Transfer the breaded zucchini to a baking sheet.
  • Fill a high-sided skillet with about 1 inch of oil--make sure the oil does not rise more than halfway up the side of the skillet. Heat over medium-high heat. Working in batches to avoid overcrowding, add the zucchini sticks to the pan. Cook until light golden brown, turning once, 2 to 3 minutes. Immediately remove the zucchini to a cooling rack set over a baking sheet. Keep warm in a 175-degree oven until ready to serve.
  • Serve the zucchini fries with the dipping sauce on side.

Time 1h5m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 18

1/3 cup buttermilk
1/3 cup mayonnaise
1/3 cup sour cream
1 tablespoon cider vinegar
2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
1 tablespoon chopped fresh dill
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder

1 cup all-purpose flour

1 medium head cauliflower, broken into 1 1/2-inch florets
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
3/4 cup hot sauce, such as Frank's Red Hot
Serving suggestions: carrot sticks, celery sticks, bell pepper strips and cucumber slices

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F; place oven racks in the top and bottom positions. Line two baking sheets with parchment.
  • For the dipping sauce: Whisk the buttermilk, mayonnaise, sour cream and vinegar in a medium bowl until smooth. Add the chives, parsley, dill, garlic powder, 1/4 teaspoon salt and some pepper; whisk to combine. Cover and chill while you make the cauliflower.
  • For the cauliflower: Whisk the flour, paprika, garlic powder and 1 teaspoon salt in a large bowl. In a spouted measuring cup, stir together the buttermilk and 1/2 cup water. Whisk the buttermilk mixture into the flour to make a smooth, thick batter.
  • Add the cauliflower to the batter and toss well to coat. Transfer the cauliflower to the prepared baking sheets, shaking excess batter back into the bowl. Arrange the florets on the baking sheets so they don't touch. Bake until the batter is set, about 15 minutes.

  • Set the oven to broil. Broil the cauliflower until tender and the coating is crispy, 2 to 3 minutes. Let cool briefly before serving with the dipping sauce. Serve carrot sticks, celery sticks, bell pepper strips and cucumber slices alongside.

2 teaspoons sugar
1 teaspoon garlic powder

4 to 5 turns fresh ground black pepper
Pinch of cayenne pepper

Steps:

  • Make the brine: Combine the water, salt, sugar, bay leaf, garlic, pepper and lemon in a large stock pot and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce the heat and let simmer until fragrant, 2 to 3 minutes.
  • When done, remove from the heat, add the ice cubes and stir until the liquid is chilled. Add the buttermilk and pickle juice. Stir well then pour enough brine over the chicken tenders in a large bowl to submerge them. Cover and refrigerate for 2 hours.

Working with 1 or 2 tenders at a time, lightly coat in the seasoned flour, dip in the egg wash, then place in the panko breading. Cover the tender in the breading then firmly press the tender flat with your palm to an even 1/4 inch thick. Flip and press again as needed to achieve even thickness and breading.
