Ingredients

Scale

8 cheese sticks, cut in half

1/2 cup Panko bread crumbs

1 egg, beaten

2 tablespoons flour

1 tablespoon Italian seasoning

1 tablespoon Parmesan cheese, shredded

Marinara sauce for dipping


Instructions

Unwrap cheese sticks, cut in half and place on a lined cookie sheet.  Place cheese sticks on lined cookie sheet and freeze.  Once the cheese sticks are frozen, preheat the oven to 400 degrees.

Grab 3 cereal bowls.

In a small bowl crack egg, discard shells, whisk egg and set aside.

In bowl #2 place 2 tablespoons flour in bowl and set aside.

For bowl #3 mix together Panko bread crumbs, Parmesan cheese, Italian seasoning and set aside.

One at a time, roll cheese sticks in flour, than egg mixture and finally Panko mixture.  Placed coated mozzarella sticks on a lined cookie sheet or silpat and baked at 400 degrees for 5 minutes on each side.

Special Note – Cheese sticks MUST BE FROZEN for this to work.  If your cheese is not frozen, it will just melt into a gooey mess in your oven.
