Ingredients

Canola oil for frying
4 cups seasoned panko breadcrumbs
1/4 cup milk
4 eggs beaten
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 cup dry Ranch dressing mix
1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
1/4 cup buffalo sauce
1 cup shredded chicken
4 oz. cream cheese, softened

Method

01

Line a 6x6 inch dish with parchment paper. Cut the parchment paper 2 inches longer and wider than the dish, so the parchment paper hangs over the edges.
02

In a large bowl, combine all ingredients up through the ranch dressing mix until smooth and evenly mixed.
03

Press the mixture into the prepared 6x6 inch dish, and smooth the mixture flat with an offset spatula or a rubber spatula.
04

Cover and freeze until solid or at least 1 hour.
05

Remove the mixture from the freezer and cut into 1x1-inch squares. Set up three shallow dishes; one dish for the flour, one for eggs/milk (beaten), and one for the breadcrumbs.
06

Dip each mozzarella bite in the flour (shaking off excess), in the egg/milk mixture, in the breadcrumbs, back in the egg/milk mixture and back in the breadcrumbs. Add more breadcrumbs or egg mixture as needed.
07

Set the prepared mozzarella bite on a small tray until all are ready. While preparing the Mozzarella bites, pour 3 inches of oil in a medium-sized, deep saucepan and bring the temperature to 350°F.
08

When the oil is ready, carefully place 4 mozzarella bites in the oil and stir to keep separated. The bites are ready when crispy and dark golden brown, approximately 1 minute. Transfer to a clean tray. Repeat until all mozzarella bites are fried.
09

Serve hot with desired dipping sauces or dips such as Ranch dip, Buffalo Ranch dip, Honey Mustard, BBQ sauce. Enjoy!
