Ingredients

2 medium zucchini
1 cup panko bread crumbs
2 teaspoons dried basil, divided
1-1/2 teaspoons seasoned salt
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese plus 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
2 large eggs, room temperature, lightly beaten
Cooking spray
Marinara sauce, warmed

Directions

Preheat air fryer to 375°. Cut each zucchini in half lengthwise and then in half crosswise. Cut each piece lengthwise into 1/4-in. slices.
In a shallow bowl, mix panko, 1 teaspoon basil, remaining seasonings and ½ cup Parmesan. Place eggs and remaining 1 teaspoon basil in separate shallow bowls. Dip zucchini slices in egg mixture and then in crumb mixture, patting to help coating adhere.
In batches, place zucchini in greased air fryer; spritz with cooking spray. Cook until lightly browned, 6-8 minutes. Flip each piece; fry until golden brown, 3-5 minutes longer.
Sprinkle hot fries with remaining 2 tablespoons Parmesan and serve with marinara sauce.
