Ingredients

For the Fancy Fried Cheese

Preparation

Cooking Instructions

1. Prepare the Cheeses

Cut the mozzarella and provolone cheeses into 1-inch thick slices.

2. Setup Breading Station

Set up a breading station with three shallow bowls: one with flour mixed with salt and pepper, one with beaten eggs, and one with panko breadcrumbs.

3. Bread the Cheese

Dip each cheese slice first in the flour mixture, then in the egg, and finally in the panko breadcrumbs, ensuring each piece is well coated.

4. Heat the Oil

In a large skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until shimmering.

5. Fry the Cheese

Carefully add the breaded cheese slices to the hot oil, frying in batches if necessary. Fry for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crispy.

6. Drain and Serve

Transfer the fried cheese to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil. Serve immediately with tomato rosa sauce and chive pesto.
