Low Carb Italian Mozzarella Sticks
How to Make It
Step 1
Add the almond meal to a bowl along with the Parmesan, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt and pepper. Stir well to combine.
Step 2
Slice the mozzarella into thick strips or wedges about 3/4 of an inch thick.
Step 3
Beat the egg in a small bowl.
Step 4
Coat each mozzarella strip in the beaten egg then roll in the seasoned almond meal, until well covered.
Step 5
Once you have coated all the cheese in the breading, transfer to the freezer to set for a minimum of one hour.
Step 6
Remove the frozen cheese from the freezer and heat a tablespoon of olive oil in a large frying pan.
Step 7
Add four of the breaded mozzarella sticks to the pan and fry for roughly 1 minute on each side, until golden brown and the cheese is hot through. Do not over cook or the cheese will melt!
Step 8
Repeat with the remaining oil and cheese and serve immediately.
