Ingredients
Scale
- 8 oz Mozzarella Cheese Cut into cubes
- 6 slices Cooked Bacon Crumble before use
- 1 lb Ground Chicken Substitute with ground turkey or lean beef if desired
- 1/2 cup Buffalo Sauce Adjust for spice preference
Instructions
- Prepare mozzarella by cutting it into small cubes, approximately one inch each, and set aside.
- Crumble the cooked bacon into smaller bits and wrap a piece of bacon around each mozzarella cube completely.
- In a bowl, mix ground chicken with garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, black pepper, and half of the buffalo sauce until well combined.
- Flatten a handful of chicken mixture in your palm, place the bacon-wrapped mozzarella in the center, and encase it with the chicken into a ball shape.
- Roll each bomb in flour, dip in beaten eggs, then coat with breadcrumbs.
- Heat oil to 350°F (175°C) for frying or preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Cook for 5-6 minutes in oil or 18-20 minutes in the oven until crispy.
- Drizzle remaining buffalo sauce over cooked bombs, serve hot.
Notes
Refrigerate assembled bombs before cooking for better shape and crispiness. Use panko for extra crunch when coating.
