Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Breading Station

    Set up a breading station by placing the flour, beaten eggs, and breadcrumbs in three separate shallow bowls.

  2. 2

    Season the Breadcrumbs

    In the bowl with the breadcrumbs, add garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper. Mix well.

  3. 3

    Coat the Cheese Sticks

    Dip each mozzarella stick into the flour, shaking off excess, then into the beaten eggs, and finally coat thoroughly with the seasoned breadcrumbs.

  4. 4

    Freeze the Coated Sticks

    Place the coated mozzarella sticks on a baking sheet and freeze for at least 30 minutes to firm up.

  5. 5

    Heat the Oil

    In a deep frying pan, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat until hot.

  6. 6

    Fry the Mozzarella Sticks

    Carefully add the frozen mozzarella sticks to the hot oil, frying in batches for about 2-3 minutes or until golden brown. Remove and drain on paper towels.

  7. 7

    Serve

    Serve the hot mozzarella sticks with marinara sauce for dipping.
