Ingredients
- 1 box of Louisiana Fish Fry Air Fryer Garlic & Herb Coating Mix, 5 oz
- 1 (10 oz) pkg. mozzarella string cheese, each stick cut in half
- 1/4 cup of all-purpose or whole wheat flour
- 1 large egg
Optional:
- Marinara sauce (for dipping)
- Ranch (for dipping)
Directions
- Place halved cheese sticks into a resealable, freezer-safe plastic bag and freeze for at least 30 minutes, until frozen.
- Pour flour into a resealable plastic bag and set aside. In a shallow dish, add the beaten egg mixture. In another shallow dish, pour the Air Fryer Garlic & Herb Seasoned Coating Mix.
- Add the frozen cheese sticks to the flour bag, seal, and shake until well coated. Remove the cheese sticks from the flour mixture, shake off excess flour, and dip them into the egg mixture. Let the excess egg drip back into the dish, then press firmly into the coating mix until fully coated.
- Place the coated mozzarella sticks on a lined baking sheet and freeze for at least 1 hour until re-frozen.
- Once frozen, place the mozzarella sticks in a single layer in the air fryer basket, careful not to overcrowd. Air fry at 370°F for 6-7 minutes or until golden brown. Serve with marinara and ranch for dipping. Enjoy!
