Kids Menu - Mozzarella Sticks (4) Recipe

Preparation

1. 1

   Prepare the Breading Station

   Set up a breading station by placing the flour in one bowl, beaten eggs in another, and breadcrumbs mixed with Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper in a third bowl.

2. 2

   Bread the Mozzarella Sticks

   Dip each mozzarella stick first into the flour, then into the beaten eggs, and finally coat it with the breadcrumb mixture. Make sure each stick is evenly coated.

3. 3

   Freeze the Sticks

   Place the breaded mozzarella sticks on a baking sheet and freeze for at least 30 minutes to help the coating adhere during frying.

4. 4

   Fry the Mozzarella Sticks

   In a deep skillet or fryer, heat vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C). Fry the frozen mozzarella sticks in batches for about 2-3 minutes, or until golden brown. Remove and drain on paper towels.

5. 5

   Prepare French Fries

   While frying the mozzarella sticks, prepare the French fries according to package instructions, either baking or frying until crispy.

6. 6

   Serve

   Serve the mozzarella sticks hot with French fries on the side. Optional: add marinara sauce for dipping.
