These 2-ingredient bacon-wrapped mozzarella sticks are a spin on deep fried mozzarella sticks. Remember, bacon makes anything better, and by freezing the cheese first, the bacon wrap fries crisp while the cheese melts inside for a decadent treat.
Ingredients
- 4 mozzarella string cheese sticks
- 4 slices thin-cut bacon
- 1/4 cup avocado oil
Directions
- Gather all ingredients. Place mozzarella sticks in the freezer until completely frozen, about 30 minutes.
- Wrap each stick with 1 slice of bacon, tucking ends in so cheese is completely covered. Secure bacon on the ends with a toothpick if necessary.
- Heat oil in a skillet to medium heat. Fry cheese sticks in hot oil, turning gently to brown and crisp on all sides.
- Remove from skillet; pat with paper towels to soak up any excess oil. Serve with dipping sauce.
