To make these Crispy Mozzarella Fries, you will need the following ingredients per serving:
- 4 oz. fresh mozzarella cheese
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 egg, beaten
- 1/2 cup seasoned breadcrumbs
- 1/4 tsp. garlic powder
- 1/4 tsp. dried oregano
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- Vegetable oil, for frying
To start, cut the mozzarella cheese into long, thin strips. In a shallow dish, mix together the flour, garlic powder, oregano, salt, and pepper. In another shallow dish, beat the egg. In a third shallow dish, mix together the breadcrumbs and additional seasoning.
Dip each mozzarella strip into the flour mixture, then the egg, and finally the breadcrumb mixture, making sure to coat each strip evenly. Place the coated strips onto a baking sheet and freeze for at least 30 minutes.
In a deep skillet or fryer, heat the vegetable oil to 375°F. Carefully add the frozen mozzarella strips to the hot oil and fry until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes. Remove from the oil and place on a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil.
Serve the Crispy Mozzarella Fries hot with your favorite dipping sauce, such as marinara or ranch.
