BAKED MEXICAN CHEESE STICKS

Provided by Marcela Valladolid

Time 4h27m

Yield 12 sticks

Number Of Ingredients 8

1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1 egg
1 1/2 cups panko breadcrumbs
2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
1 teaspoon salt
Pinch freshly ground black pepper
1 (12-count) package mozzarella string cheese
Nonstick cooking spray

Steps:

  • Place the flour in a shallow bowl or plate. In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg and 1 tablespoon water. In another shallow bowl or plate, combine the panko, cilantro, salt and pepper.
  • Begin by coating the mozzarella sticks in batches of 2, first dredging in the flour mixture and shaking off excess. Then dip in the egg mixture, letting any excess drip off. Finish by dredging in the panko crumb mixture and shaking any off excess. Transfer the breaded cheese sticks to a sheet pan greased with nonstick cooking spray. Cover and freeze until frozen, about 4 hours and up to 2 days (this will lessen the oozing of the cheese).
  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Lightly spray the cheese sticks with nonstick cooking spray. Bake until the cheese is soft and the sticks are lightly browned, about 12 minutes.

  • Use a variety of fillings. There are many different fillings that you can use for Mexican pick-up sticks, so get creative and experiment with different flavors.
  • Serve with your favorite dipping sauce. Mexican pick-up sticks are delicious with a variety of dipping sauces, such as guacamole, salsa, or sour cream.

Conclusion:

Mexican pick-up sticks are a fun and easy appetizer that is perfect for any party or gathering. They're also a great way to use up leftover tortillas.
