Mozzarella Stick Ingredients
Method
Preparation Steps
- 1
Prepare the Ingredients
Start by setting up a breading station with three shallow dishes: one for the flour, one for the beaten eggs, and one for the breadcrumbs mixed with Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper.
- 2
Bread the Mozzarella Sticks
Coat each mozzarella stick in flour, shaking off the excess. Dip it into the beaten eggs, allowing any excess to drip off, and then roll it in the breadcrumb mixture until fully coated. Repeat until all sticks are breaded.
- 3
Chill the Sticks
Place the breaded mozzarella sticks on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and freeze for at least 30 minutes to help them hold their shape during frying.
- 4
Heat the Oil
In a large pot or deep fryer, heat vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C).
- 5
Fry the Mozzarella Sticks
Carefully add the frozen mozzarella sticks to the hot oil in batches, frying for about 2-3 minutes or until golden brown. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.

Serve
Serve the mozzarella sticks hot with marinara sauce for dipping.
