12 mozzarella cheese sticks (string cheese).
02 -
1 cup all-purpose flour.
03 -
2 eggs, beaten.

1½ cups breadcrumbs.

1 tsp garlic powder.

1 tsp Italian seasoning.

½ tsp salt.
08 -
Vegetable oil for frying.
09 -
Marinara sauce for dipping.
# Instructions:
01 -
Unwrap the mozzarella sticks and freeze them for at least 30 minutes to prevent them from melting too quickly during frying.
02 -
Set up a breading station with three bowls: one with flour, one with beaten eggs, and one with breadcrumbs mixed with garlic powder, Italian seasoning, and salt.
03 -
Dip each mozzarella stick first in the flour, then in the beaten eggs, and finally in the breadcrumb mixture. For extra crispiness, repeat the egg and breadcrumb coating process.
04 -
Heat vegetable oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Fry the mozzarella sticks in batches for 1-2 minutes until golden brown. Drain on paper towels.
05 -
Serve hot with marinara sauce for dipping.
