A delightful twist on the classic cheese sticks, featuring a crispy golden crust and a burst of flavor in every bite.
Prepare the coating stations by placing flour in one bowl, beaten eggs in another, and a mixture of breadcrumbs and taco seasoning in a third.
Use separate hands for dry and wet ingredients to keep the process tidy.
Dip each cheese stick first into the flour, then into the egg, and finally into the breadcrumb mixture, ensuring an even coating.
Press the breadcrumbs gently onto the cheese sticks to help them adhere better.
Place the coated cheese sticks on a baking sheet and refrigerate for 30 minutes to set the coating.
Chilling helps the coating stay intact during frying.
Heat the oil in a frying pan to 375°F and fry the cheese sticks in batches until golden brown, about 1 minute per batch.
Use a thermometer to monitor the oil temperature for consistent results.
Remove the fried cheese sticks and place them on paper towels to drain excess oil.
Serve immediately for the best texture and flavor.
