  • 1 cup all-purpose flour<\/li>\n

  • \u00bc tsp black pepper<\/li>\n
  • Oil, for deep frying<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    \u00a0Instructions<\/h3>\n
      \n
    1. Prepare the onions:<\/strong>
      \nSeparate the onion rings and match a larger ring with a smaller one to create a gap for the cheese.<\/li>\n
    2. Stuff with cheese:<\/strong>
      \nPlace mozzarella sticks between the two rings, pressing gently so the cheese fits snugly.<\/li>\n
    3. Set up breading station:<\/strong>\n
        \n
      • Bowl 1: flour<\/li>\n
      • Bowl 2: eggs whisked with milk<\/li>\n
      • Bowl 3: breadcrumbs mixed with garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n
      • Bread the rings:<\/strong>
        \nDip each stuffed ring into flour \u2192 egg mixture \u2192 breadcrumbs.
        \nFor extra crispiness, repeat the egg and breadcrumb step.<\/li>\n
      • Freeze (important!):<\/strong>
        \nPlace the rings on a tray and freeze for 30\u201345 minutes<\/strong> to prevent cheese from leaking while frying.<\/li>\n
      • Fry:<\/strong>
        \nHeat oil to 175\u00b0C \/ 350\u00b0F<\/strong>. Fry rings in batches for 2\u20133 minutes per side<\/strong> until golden brown and crispy.<\/li>\n
      • Drain:<\/strong>
        \nRemove and place on paper towels to absorb excess oil.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

        \u00a0Serving Ideas<\/h3>\n
          \n
        • Serve hot with marinara sauce, ranch, or spicy mayo<\/li>\n
        • Perfect as a party snack, appetizer, or movie-night treat<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

          Tip:<\/strong> If you prefer baking, bake at 200\u00b0C \/ 400\u00b0F<\/strong> for 15\u201318 minutes, flipping halfway (spray lightly with oil).<\/p>\n
