This Spanish Calabacín Rebozado, roughly translated to battered zucchini, is possibly the best zucchini dish I have ever tasted. It´s packed with simple yet delicious flavors, made with basic ingredients and done in just 30 minutes.

You can serve this dish as a tapas appetizer, like they do in Spain, or even as a side dish, next to some roasted potatoes and grilled fish. Either way, enjoy this dish next to a crunchy baguette and a chilled beer for the ultimate experience.

It took me 2 to 3 minutes per side to perfectly fry the slices of zucchini. Of course every pan and stove top heats differently. So it might take you 1 minute less or 1 minute more. Either way, make sure to cook in batches to not overcrowd the pan.

TIPS & TRICKS to Make this Recipe: As you finish each batch of zucchini, you can add into a preheated oven at its lowest setting. This will keep the fried slices of zucchini warm while you cook the rest of the batches.
