Ingredients
- 16 pieces string cheese, removed from wrappers
- 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 whole eggs
- 3 T milk
- 2 cups Panko bread crumbs
- 1 T dried parsley flakes
- canola oil, for frying
- marinara sauce, for dipping
Preparation
Step 1
Slice string cheese pieces in half, for a total of 32 pieces. Place flour in a small bowl.
In a separate bowl, whisk eggs and milk.
In another separate bowl, combine Panko bread crumbs with parsley flakes.
To Assemble:
One by one, roll mozzarella sticks in flour, then dunk in egg/milk mixture, then place in Panko crumbs. Use your hand to sweep crumbs all over the mozzarella stick. Gently remove and place on a tray or cookie sheet. Repeat until all mozzarella sticks are coated.
***Place tray in freezer for 20 to 30 minutes to flash freeze.***
To Cook:
Heat 1 1/2 inches canola oil in a large skillet over medium heat. When hot, add mozzarella sticks 8 at a time. Watch closely and turn over to evenly brown, cooking less than 2 minutes. Do not allow cheese to bubble and leak.
Remove to a paper towel-lined plate.
Serve immediately with warm marinara sauce.
