Chefadora AI has the answer - timers, swaps, step-by-step help.
Roll out the pizza dough until it's thin yet manageable.
Place the mozzarella sticks on one end of the dough.
Fold the other half of the dough over to cover the mozzarella sticks completely.
Use a pizza cutter to slice the dough-wrapped mozzarella into sticks.
Dip each stick into the whisked eggs, then coat thoroughly with panko breadcrumbs.
Carefully set the sticks in the heated oil, ensuring they sit rather than being submerged.
Fry until all sides are golden brown.
Serve with marinara sauce or your favorite dipping sauce. Enjoy!
Ensure the oil is hot enough before frying to achieve a crispy texture.
Use a pizza cutter for even and clean slices of dough-wrapped mozzarella.
Pair with marinara sauce or ranch dressing for a delicious dipping experience.
Can I use store-bought marinara sauce?

Can I bake these instead of frying?
Yes, you can bake them at 375°F (190°C) for about 15-20 minutes or until golden brown.
What can I use instead of panko breadcrumbs?
