Chicken Bacon Ranch Mozzarella Sticks

 

 

Ingredients:

  • 6 slices of mozzarella cheese
  • 1 1/2 cups cooked chicken, shredded or grilled
  • 1/4 cup cooked bacon, crumbled
  • 1 tablespoon low-carb ranch dressing
  • 1 teaspoon finely sliced green onion

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the Chicken Bacon Ranch Mixture:
    • In a mixing bowl, combine the shredded or grilled chicken, crumbled bacon, ranch dressing, and finely sliced green onion. Mix until well combined. Set aside.
  2. Preheat the Oven:
    • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a large baking sheet with a silicone baking mat or parchment paper.
  3. Bake the Mozzarella Slices:
    • Arrange the slices of mozzarella cheese on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are evenly spaced. Bake in the preheated oven for 5-7 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbling and the edges are lightly browned.
  4. Cool the Mozzarella Slices:
    • Remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the mozzarella slices cool for about a minute. They should be malleable but cool enough to handle.
  5. Assemble the Mozzarella Sticks:
    • Spoon the chicken bacon ranch mixture evenly down the center of each mozzarella slice.
    • Carefully roll up each mozzarella slice, starting from one edge and rolling tightly towards the other edge. Ensure the seam side is facing down to prevent the filling from spilling out.
  6. Serve and Enjoy:
    • Once all the mozzarella sticks are assembled, serve them immediately while they are still warm and gooey.
    • Optionally, you can serve them with additional ranch dressing or your favorite dipping sauce on the side.
