Servings 12 Sticks

Ingredients

  • 1 package 12 sticks of mozzarella string cheese
  • 1 large egg
  • ¼ cups Garlic & Herb Italian breadcrumbs or any flavor

Instructions

  • Remove the mozzarella string cheese from the wrappers and lay them on a baking pan.
  • Freeze the cheese sticks for about 30 minutes or so, until hard (keeps them from blowing up in the oven)
  • In one bowl, crack the egg and whisk
  • In another bowl, add the Italian breadcrumbs.
  • Spray a large baking sheet with nonstick cooking spray, or double up and cover your baking sheet with foil and then spray with nonstick cooking spray.
  • Dip your frozen cheese sticks first in the egg, then roll to coat with the breadcrumbs. I actually re-dip mine so I can make sure they are covered in enough breadcrumbs. If you decide to do this, just redip in the egg and then re-roll in the breadcrumbs a second time.
  • Repeat the process for each remaining cheese stick, placing them on the baking sheet.
  • Send the sticks back to the freezer for about 20 minutes.
  • Remove from freezer and pop pan in oven. Bake at 400 degrees for about 5 minutes, flip the cheese sticks over and bake for an additional 4-5 minutes. Don't walk away at this point. Watch them. Remove when you see cheese bubbling. Serve immediately and Enjoy!
