Ingredients

  • 1 5 oz bag of pork rinds
  • 10 pieces of string mozzarella cheese
  • 1 tsp italian seasoning
  • 1 tbsp Tony Chachere's
  • ½ gallon Oil for frying corn, peanut, vegetable, etc.
  • 2 eggs

Instructions

  • Heat oil to 365°F-375°F
  • Cut string cheese in half to create 20 short pieces
  • In a food processor, blend pork rinds until finely crushed. Add italian seasoning and Tony Chachere's.
  • Whisk two eggs completely until everything is completely broken up
  • Dip cheese in eggs (a few at a time) and transfer to pork rind mixture. Completely coat in pork rind. Return the cheese to the whisked eggs and coat again in pork rinds. Coating will be moldable, so make sure all parts of the cheese is covered. Repeat until all cheese pieces are coated.
  • When the oil is hot, drop a few in the pot (about 5 or so) and fry for 60-90 seconds. At the first sign of cheese leakage, remove from oil. Repeat process for all cheese sticks. Serve immediately with your favorite dipping sauce.
