Instructions:
Prepare the Coating: In separate bowls, place flour, beaten eggs, and breadcrumbs mixed with garlic powder and Italian seasoning.
Coat the Cheese: Dip each mozzarella cube into the flour, then the beaten eggs, and finally coat with the breadcrumb mixture. Repeat to ensure a thick coating.
Chill: Place the coated cheese bites in the freezer for 15-20 minutes to prevent melting while frying.
Fry: Heat vegetable oil in a deep pan over medium heat. Fry the cheese bites in small batches until golden brown, about 1-2 minutes. Remove and drain on paper towels.
Garnish with fresh parsley and serve hot with marinara sauce for dipping.
