Method

Cheese Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Cheese

    Remove the mozzarella cheese sticks from their packaging and set them aside on a plate.

Breading Mixture

  1. 2

    Set Up Breading Station

    In three separate shallow bowls, prepare the breading station: one with flour, one with beaten eggs mixed with milk, and one with breadcrumbs combined with Italian seasoning, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.

  2. 3

    Bread the Cheese Sticks

    Coat each mozzarella stick first in flour, then dip it in the egg mixture, and finally roll it in the breadcrumb mixture until fully coated. Repeat until all cheese sticks are breaded.

Frying

  1. 4

    Heat the Oil

    In a large, deep skillet or pot, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).

  2. 5

    Fry the Cheese Sticks

    Carefully add the breaded mozzarella sticks to the hot oil in batches, making sure not to overcrowd the pot. Fry for about 2-3 minutes, or until they are golden brown and crispy. Remove them with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.

Serving

  1. 6

    Serve the Mozzarella Sticks

    Plate the fried mozzarella sticks and serve them hot with marinara sauce on the side for dipping.
