A plant-based twist on a classic snack, these Portobello Mushroom Fries offer a satisfying crunch with juicy interiors and a delightful umami flavor.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 large portobello mushroom caps
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 large eggs, room temperature
  • 1 cup plain panko breadcrumbs
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt

  3. Slice each mushroom cap into 1/2 inch strips.
  4. In a shallow bowl, add the all-purpose flour.
  5. In another bowl, beat the eggs until smooth.
