Ingredients

Method

Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Cheese

    Freeze the mozzarella sticks for at least 30 minutes to make them easier to handle during breading and frying.

  2. 2

    Set Up Breading Station

    In three separate shallow dishes, place flour in the first dish, beaten eggs in the second dish, and a mixture of breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper in the third dish.

  3. 3

    Bread the Mozzarella Sticks

    Take a frozen mozzarella stick and coat it in flour, then dip it in the beaten eggs, and finally coat it with the breadcrumb mixture. Repeat for all mozzarella sticks.

  4. 4

    Fry the Mozzarella Sticks

    In a large pot or deep fryer, heat the oil to 375°F (190°C). Fry the mozzarella sticks in batches for about 2-3 minutes or until golden brown. Remove and drain on paper towels.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Serve hot with marinara sauce or your favorite dipping sauce.
