Air Fryer Buffalo Chicken Mozzarella Sticks
These Air Fryer Buffalo Chicken Mozzarella Sticks are the ultimate game-day appetizer or easy party snack. Crunchy on the outside, irresistibly gooey on the inside, and packed with bold buffalo chicken flavor, they’re guaranteed to disappear fast! Best of all, they’re made in the air fryer, so you get all the crispiness with less oil and less mess.
Ingredients:
2 cups cooked shredded chicken
½ cup buffalo wing sauce
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
8 mozzarella string cheese sticks
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 large eggs, beaten
1½ cups seasoned breadcrumbs
Cooking spray
Instructions:
In a large bowl, combine the shredded chicken, buffalo sauce, and shredded mozzarella cheese.
Mix well until the chicken is fully coated and the mixture is sticky and cheesy.
Take a small portion of the buffalo chicken mixture and flatten it in your palm.
Place one mozzarella string cheese stick in the center and carefully wrap the mixture around it, sealing all sides so the cheese is fully covered.
Repeat with the remaining cheese sticks.
Roll each wrapped stick in flour, then dip into the beaten eggs, and coat with seasoned breadcrumbs.
For ultra-crispy results, repeat the egg and breadcrumb coating once more.
Lightly spray the sticks with cooking spray.
Air fry at 375°F (190°C) for 8–10 minutes, turning halfway, until golden brown and crispy.
