Equipment

  • Air Fryer

Ingredients
  

  • 2 medium zucchinis
  • 2 teaspoons olive oil
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • Salt to taste
  • Pepper to taste

Instructions
 

  • Start by slicing each zucchini in half lengthwise and creating a diamond-shaped crisscross pattern on the cut side using a sharp knife.

Preparation:

  • Generously sprinkle salt on the scored sides of the zucchini. Lay the zucchini cut side down on paper towels and let them rest for 20 to 25 minutes to extract excess moisture.
  • Flip the zucchini and drizzle olive oil on the scored sides, ensuring even coverage. Season with garlic powder, salt, and pepper.

Cooking:

  • Place the zucchini cut side up in the air fryer basket. Cook at 400°F for approximately 20 to 25 minutes until the edges are golden brown and the zucchini is tender. Serve hot and enjoy your crispy crisscross zucchini!
