Method
Cheese Preparation
- 1
Prepare the Mozzarella Sticks
Take the mozzarella cheese sticks out of the packaging and freeze them for at least 30 minutes. This will help them hold their shape when frying.
Batter Preparation
- 2
Make the Batter
In a shallow dish, combine the all-purpose flour, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. In another bowl, whisk the eggs and milk together until well combined. In a third shallow dish, place the breadcrumbs.
Coating the Cheese
- 3
Coat the Mozzarella Sticks
Take a frozen mozzarella stick and dip it into the flour mixture, coating it evenly. Next, dip it into the egg mixture, allowing any excess to drip off. Finally, roll it in the breadcrumbs until fully coated. Repeat with all cheese sticks.
Frying
- 4
Heat the Oil
In a deep skillet or pot, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C). Use a thermometer to check the temperature for accuracy.

Fry the Cheese Sticks
Carefully place a few coated mozzarella sticks into the hot oil, making sure not to overcrowd the pan. Fry them for about 2-3 minutes or until they turn golden brown and crispy. Use a slotted spoon to remove them and drain on paper towels. Repeat with the remaining sticks.

Serve and Enjoy
Serve the fried mozzarella sticks hot with marinara sauce or your favorite dipping sauce.
