Mozzarella Planks Recipe

Instructions

1. 1

   Prepare the Mozzarella

   Cut the fresh mozzarella cheese into planks, about 1/2 inch thick.

2. 2

   Set Up Breading Station

   Set up three shallow bowls: one with flour, one with beaten eggs, and one with panko bread crumbs mixed with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder.

3. 3

   Bread the Mozzarella

   Dredge each mozzarella plank in flour, dip into the beaten eggs, and then coat with the panko bread crumbs, pressing gently to adhere.

4. 4

   Fry the Planks

   In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Once hot, add the breaded mozzarella planks and fry until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes on each side.

5. 5

   Drain and Serve

   Remove the mozzarella planks from the skillet and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil. Serve hot with marinara or Melba sauce for dipping.
