My Tuesday’s Tip for your Super Bowl 50 party is to skinny up your mozzarella sticks. Instead of deep frying them, do a version baked in the oven.
1 Egg
1/2 Cup Italian Breadcrumbs
2 TBSP Shredded Parmesan Cheese
1/2 TSP Salt, Pepper, and if you want a bit of spice, Cayenne Pepper
Crack egg in a bowl and whisk
10 Mozzarella Cheese sticks
Marinara sauce for dipping

Skinny Mozzarella Stick Ingredients
Cut cheese sticks in half and place in freezer for at least an hour
Place breadcrumbs, cheese, and spices in another bowl and mix to combine
Preheat oven to 425
Line a rimmed cookie sheet with tin foil and spray with cooking spray
Place mozzarella stick in egg
Once the cheese stick is coated in the egg wash, remove and place in breadcrumb mixture
Coat the cheese stick with the mixture and place on the cookie sheet
Repeat until all of the cheese sticks are coated and placed on the cookie sheet

Ready to go into the oven
Bake in the oven for 5 minutes
Remove from the oven and serve with marinara sauce

Skinny Mozzarella Sticks

Served Up!
Note, the cheese may be a little pliable but once you plate them, they will come back to form and they will taste delicious! Also, in my pictures I put the cheese on a cooling rack placed inside of the cookie sheet. Don’t do this or your mozzarella sticks will seep through the grate.
