Air Fryer Zucchini with Herby Greek Yogurt Dip
If you're in search of a healthy and satisfying snack or appetizer, look no further than my air fryer zucchini with herby Greek yogurt dip. This delightful dish combines the crispy goodness of air-fried zucchini with a refreshing and herby Greek yogurt dip, creating a delicious pairing.
Begin with fresh zucchini, sliced into thin rounds. You will need three small mixing bowls to create the coating. In the first bowl add the flour. In the second bowl, whisk the egg and milk together. In the third bowl, combine the bread crumbs, parmesan cheese, and seasonings. Each zucchini slice gets dipped in first the flour, then the egg, and finally the bread crumb mixture. Finally, they take a quick trip to the air fryer, where they emerge golden brown and irresistibly crispy.
While the zucchini crisps in the air fryer, prepare the herby Greek yogurt dip. Greek yogurt forms the creamy base, bringing richness and a pleasant tang. To infuse the dip with herby goodness, I add a medley of fresh herbs like dill, parsley, and chives. A squeeze of lemon juice brightens the flavors, while grated garlic adds depth.
As you dip the zucchini into the yogurt, you'll experience a harmony of textures and flavors that's both satisfying and refreshing. It's a versatile dish that can be served as an appetizer, a side dish, or a light snack. Enjoy!
