About

There are ordinary mozzarella sticks and then there are Touchdown Dorito Sticks! You can taste the difference, because the latter is a champion-level appetizer for the championship game! The melty, cheesy inside is the same fantastic snack as always, but the exterior is crunchy, nacho-cheese flavored tortilla chips! That's something breadcrumbs can't compete with! It's a score with Touchdown Dorito Sticks!

Ingredients

1 cup Doritos™, crushed
1 egg, lightly beaten
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
6 mozzarella cheese sticks, cut in half

Directions

Step 1 -Preheat the air fryer for 5 minutes at 400 degrees F on the air-crisp setting.

Step 2 -Place the crushed Doritos in a shallow bowl.

Step 3 -In a separate shallow bowl, add the egg and whisk it.

Step 4 -In a third shallow bowl, add the flour.

Step 5 -Dredge each cheese stick half into the egg wash, then the flour, then back into the egg wash, and finally into the crushed Doritos, in that order.

Step 6 -Place each cheese stick into the air fryer basket in a single layer and air fry until the cheese is melty on the inside, about 3-4 minutes.

Step 7 -Serve.
