Directions

  1. 1Prepare a breading station with seasoned flour, beaten eggs, and a mix of Italian seasoned and panko breadcrumbs.
  2. 2Take the marinated mozzarella balls and coat them first in seasoned flour using a dry hand.
  3. 3Then dip the floured mozzarella balls into the beaten eggs using a wet hand.
  4. 4After the egg wash, coat the mozzarella balls in the breadcrumb mix using a dry hand.
  5. 5Repeat the egg and breadcrumb coating for a second layer to ensure a sturdy coating.
  6. 6Place the double-coated mozzarella bombs in a dish and freeze them for at least 30 minutes.
  7. 7Heat vegetable oil in a skillet to about 375°F (190°C), or until there's an aggressive sizzle when the cheese goes in.
  8. 8Carefully place the frozen mozzarella bombs into the hot oil using a slotted spoon and fry until golden brown and crispy.
  9. 9Remove the fried mozzarella bombs from the oil with a slotted spoon and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
