Homemade Monzarella Sticks

Who doesn't love stringy, melted cheese in a crispy crust? Serve with your favorite dipping sauce.

8 pieces of string cheese
1/2 cup flour
1 to 2 eggs
1 to 2 tbsp. milk
1 cup Italian-style Panko bread crumbs
Oil for frying
1/2 cup marinara sauce (for dunking)

Cut string cheese in half.

Put the flour in one bowl, mix egg and milk in another bowl, and breadcrumbs in another bowl
Like an assembly line starting with the flour.

Roll cheese in flour, then egg mixture and then breadcrumbs. I like to repeat the egg and breadcrumb
a second time just to keep the cheese inside better and for more crunch also.

Place sticks on plate or cookie sheet and place in freezer for at least 30 minutes to freeze the cheese.

Heat oil to 375 and deep fry until golden brown.

Drain on paper towel or wire rack.

Serve with any sauce you like!
