1. Prepare the Zucchini

1. Grate the Zucchini: Wash the zucchinis and grate them using a box grater or food processor.
2. Remove Excess Moisture: Place the grated zucchini in a clean kitchen towel or cheesecloth. Squeeze out as much water as possible. Removing excess moisture ensures the bites are crispy rather than soggy.

2. Make the Mixture

1. Combine Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the grated zucchini, beaten egg, breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, minced garlic, parsley, salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning. Mix well until the ingredients are evenly incorporated.
2. Form the Bites: Scoop about 1 tablespoon of the mixture and roll it into a small ball. Flatten slightly to form a patty. Repeat until all the mixture is used.

3. Cook the Bites

Oven Method:

1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Spray lightly with olive oil.
2. Bake: Place the zucchini bites on the prepared baking sheet, leaving a little space between each one. Spray or drizzle the tops with olive oil. Bake for 10 minutes, then flip and bake for an additional 8-10 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy.

Air Fryer Method:

1. Preheat Air Fryer: Preheat the air fryer to 375°F (190°C).
2. Cook: Arrange the bites in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Spray lightly with olive oil. Cook for 8-10 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden and crisp.

Stovetop Method:

1. Heat a Skillet: Heat a tablespoon of olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
2. Pan-Fry the Bites: Place the zucchini bites in the skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through.

4. Serve

1. Plate the Bites: Arrange the cooked zucchini garlic bites on a serving platter.
2. Add Dipping Sauces: Serve with your favorite dipping sauce on the side.
3. Enjoy Warm: These bites are best enjoyed warm and fresh out of the oven, air fryer, or skillet.
