Forget The Breadcrumbs – The Next Time Someone Makes Mozzarella Sticks Make Sure They Add This Instead

Here's everything for these super spicy Hot Cheetos mozzarella sticks. This recipe requires 15 minutes of prep time and 10 minutes of cooking time, and makes four servings.

Let's Get Started…

Ingredients To Gather:

1 cup bread crumbs

1 1/2 cups Hot Cheetos

2 eggs

1 package mozzarella cheese sticks

Vegetable oil

Salt

Directions To Follow:

STEP 1
Blend bread crumbs and Hot Cheetos together in a food processor until fine and mixed. Pour the mixed crumbs into a medium-sized bowl.

STEP 2
Crack eggs into a small bowl and beat them. Set bowl aside.

STEP 3
Unwrap the mozzarella cheese sticks. Cut each in half so it's easier for you to roll them in the beaten egg and batter.

STEP 4
Dip and roll each cheese stick into the beaten egg and then drop the sticks into the crumb bowl.

STEP 5
Roll each cheese stick into the crumbs until fully coated. For convenience, use a spoon with your separate hand so that bread crumbs don't build up on your fingers.

Next, pour vegetable oil into a skillet and then turn the heat to medium, adding some salt to the skillet to prevent the oil from spattering. Next, drop one of the cheese sticks into the hot oil using metal tongs and cook for about 5 seconds on each side.

Finished!

These mozzarella sticks taste great all by themselves, but we also like to serve them with a dipping sauce — pretty much any sauce tastes great with them.

Enjoy!
