Prep Time
15 minutes
Cook Time
4-5 minutes
Servings
4
INGREDIENTS
- 1 bag Takis chips
- 1 block mozzarella cheese, cut into sticks
- ½ cup corn starch
- 2 large eggs, beaten
- Oil for frying (vegetable or canola), preheated to 350°F
DIRECTIONS
-
Begin by turning Takis into crumbs. Place the Takis chips in a blender or food processor and blend until you achieve a coarse crumb consistency.
-
Cut the mozzarella block into sticks, ensuring they are of uniform size for even frying.
-
Dredge each mozzarella stick in corn starch, shaking off any excess.
-
Dip the corn-starch-coated mozzarella sticks into the beaten eggs, making sure they are well coated.
-
Roll the egg-coated mozzarella sticks in the Takis crumbs, pressing gently to adhere the crumbs to the cheese.
-
In a deep pan, heat the oil to 350°F (175°C). Carefully place the coated mozzarella sticks into the hot oil and fry for 4-5 minutes, or until they turn golden brown and crispy. Fry in batches to avoid overcrowding the pan.
-
Once golden and crispy, use a slotted spoon to remove the mozzarella sticks from the oil. Place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil.
Notes
Adjust the level of spice by choosing the Takis flavor of your preference.
Prepare the Dipping Sauce
In a small bowl, combine 1 cup of ranch dressing with 4 tablespoons of Woodfire Whiskey Jalapeño Ranch. Mix well until the flavors are thoroughly combined.
Serve the Takis Mozzarella Sticks hot with the spicy-sweet dipping sauce on the side. These fiery bites are sure to disappear in no time, so be ready to make a second batch!
