Ingredients
-
Cooking spray
-
¼ cup cornstarch
-
4 large egg whites, lightly beaten
-
1 cup panko (Japanese-style breadcrumbs)
-
¾ ounce Parmesan cheese, finely grated (see Tip)
-
1 ½ teaspoons dried oregano
-
12 ounces spiralized zucchini noodles (see Tip)
-
¼ teaspoon salt
-
¼ cup light ranch dressing
-
¼ cup lower-sodium marinara sauce
Directions
-
Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper; coat with cooking spray. Place cornstarch in a shallow dish. Place egg whites in a separate shallow dish. Stir together panko, Parmesan and oregano in a third shallow dish.
-
Coarsely chop zucchini noodles into 5- or 6-inch-long pieces. Working in batches, dredge the noodles in the cornstarch; shake off excess. Dredge in the egg whites; shake off excess. Dredge in the panko mixture; shake off excess. Arrange the noodles, well spaced apart, in a single layer on the prepared baking sheets. Coat with cooking spray.
-
Bake until golden and crispy, 10 to 12 minutes. Remove from oven; sprinkle with salt.
-
Combine ranch and marinara in a shallow bowl; serve alongside the fries.
Tips
Tips: Finely grate Parmesan using the medium holes of box grater (you should get about 1/4 cup).
Look for a package of fresh zucchini noodles in the produce department, or make your own zucchini noodles; you'll need about 3 medium or 2 large zucchini for 12 ounces of zoodles.
Equipment: Parchment paper

Nutrition information is calculated by a registered dietitian using an ingredient database but should be considered an estimate.
* Daily Values (DVs) are the recommended amounts of nutrients to consume each day. Percent Daily Value (%DV) found on nutrition labels tells you how much a serving of a particular food or recipe contributes to each of those total recommended amounts. Per the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the daily value is based on a standard 2,000 calorie diet. Depending on your calorie needs or if you have a health condition, you may need more or less of particular nutrients. (For example, it’s recommended that people following a heart-healthy diet eat less sodium on a daily basis compared to those following a standard diet.)
