Step by Step Method
Step 1
Stir the bread crumbs, 1 cup of Parmesan and 1 teaspoon of salt and pepper in a medium bowl to blend.
Step 2
Dip the cheese in the eggs to coat completely and allow the excess egg to drip back into the bowl. Coat the cheese in the bread crumb mixture, patting to adhere and coat completely. Place the cheese sticks on a baking sheet. Repeat dipping the cheese sticks in the egg and bread crumb mixture to coat a second time. Cover and freeze until frozen, about 2 hours and up to 2 days.
Step 3
Heat the oil in a large frying pan over medium heat. Working in batches, fry the cheese until golden brown, about 1 minute per side. Transfer the fried cheese to plates.
Step 4
Sprinkle with the remaining cheese and serve with the Marinara Sauce.
