Mozzarella stick recipe in FIVE steps!

These are a great appetizer or side to any meal, are absolutely delicious, AND can be made with ingredients that are probably in your house right now (and if not they are super cheap)! If you do not have a deep fryer you can also use a pot with either vegetable oil or peanut oil (my preference) and use a cooking thermometer to measure the temperature and cook as directed.😊 Happy cooking.

... Read moreMozzarella sticks are a classic favorite for snack lovers and perfect for parties or movie nights. Follow these five straightforward steps to create your very own delicious batch: STEP 1: Gather the ingredients. You’ll need 1 cup of all-purpose flour, 1 tsp of cornstarch, 1 cup of breadcrumbs, 4 tsp of garlic powder, 2 eggs, 4 tsp of onion powder, 4 tsp of chili powder, black pepper, and string cheese. You can find all these items in your pantry or local grocery store. STEP 2: Prepare your equipment. If you don’t have a deep fryer, a pot works just as well! Heat the oil to 350°F and ensure you have a cooking thermometer handy for accuracy. STEP 3: Prepare the cheese sticks. Cut your string cheese in half and coat them by dipping them in flour, then eggs, and finally breadcrumbs. For a double crispy texture, repeat this coating process. STEP 4: Fry to perfection. Place the coated cheese sticks into the hot oil until they turn golden brown, which usually takes 3-4 minutes. Make sure not to overcrowd the pot to ensure even cooking. STEP 5: Serve hot and enjoy your cheesy, golden delights with your favorite dipping sauce. Whether it's marinara, ranch, or even a spicy aioli, these homemade mozzarella sticks are sure to impress. Enjoy your cooking! Remember, experimentation is key—try adding spices to your breadcrumbs for an extra flavor kick!

be careful when cooking them i cooked them for only 8 minutes and they were burnt and the cheese melted out. other than that i think these would be delicious
