Ingredients
Mozzarella Cheese Sticks
Preparation Steps
1. Prepare the Cheese
Cut the mozzarella cheese into sticks, about 1/2 inch thick and 3 inches long. Place them in the freezer for about 30 minutes to firm up.
2. Set Up Breading Station
In three separate bowls, place the flour, beaten eggs, and bread crumbs mixed with Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper.
3. Bread the Cheese Sticks
Take the chilled mozzarella sticks and dip each one first in the flour, then the egg, and finally coat with the bread crumbs. Make sure they are fully covered.
4. Heat Oil
In a deep skillet or frying pan, heat the oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).
5. Fry the Cheese Sticks
Carefully place the breaded cheese sticks into the hot oil in batches, frying until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes per side. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.
6. Serve
Serve the crispy mozzarella cheese sticks warm with marinara sauce for dipping.
