Mozzarella Stick Ingredients

Method

Cooking Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Cheese

    Freeze the mozzarella sticks for about 30 minutes to help them hold their shape while frying.

  2. 2

    Set up the Breading Station

    In three separate bowls, place the flour, beaten eggs, and a mixture of breadcrumbs, garlic powder, oregano, salt, and pepper.

  3. 3

    Bread the Cheese Sticks

    Dip each frozen mozzarella stick in flour, then in beaten eggs, and finally coat in the breadcrumb mixture. Repeat the process for a second layer of breadcrumbs if desired.

  4. 4

    Heat the Oil

    In a deep pot or fryer, heat the vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C).

  5. 5

    Fry the Mozzarella Sticks

    Carefully place the breaded mozzarella sticks in the hot oil and fry for 2-3 minutes, or until golden brown. Do not overcrowd the pot.

  6. 6

    Drain and Serve

    Remove the sticks from the oil and drain on paper towels. Serve hot with marinara sauce for dipping.
