Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Gather all the ingredients listed and set up a breading station with three bowls: one for flour, one for beaten eggs, and one for breadcrumbs mixed with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and Italian seasoning.

  2. 2

    Coat the Mozzarella Sticks

    Take each mozzarella stick and first coat it in flour, shaking off the excess. Then, dip it into the beaten eggs, ensuring it's fully covered. Finally, roll it in the breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently to adhere. Repeat for all mozzarella sticks.

Frying

  1. 3

    Heat the Oil

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

  2. 4

    Fry the Mozzarella Sticks

    Carefully lower the breaded mozzarella sticks into the hot oil in batches, avoiding overcrowding. Fry them for about 2-3 minutes, or until they are golden brown and crispy. Use a slotted spoon to remove them and drain on paper towels.

Serving

  1. 5

    Serve the Mozzarella Sticks

    Arrange the fried mozzarella sticks on a serving plate. Serve hot with marinara sauce on the side for dipping.
