Pickles and Cheese
Craving something unique and savory? Pickles and Cheese strikes the perfect balance of tangy and creamy, making it the ultimate snack for any occasion. Easy to prepare and utterly delicious, this recipe will become a go-to after just one bite!
Equipment
- nonstick skillet
- Spatula
- Paper towels
Ingredients
- Shredded mozzarella cheese
- Paprika
- Garlic powder
- Dill pickles petite, sliced, wedges, etc., drained
Instructions
- Prepare the Cheese: In a small skillet, sprinkle a handful of shredded mozzarella cheese, forming a circle about the size of your pickle. This will be the cheesy wrap for your pickle.
- Season the Cheese: Lightly sprinkle paprika and garlic powder over the cheese. You can add as little or as much as you want.
- Melt and Crisp the Cheese: Heat the skillet over medium-high heat. Allow the cheese to melt and cook until the skillet side becomes crispy and golden brown. This should take just a few minutes.
- Wrap the Pickle: Place a pickle at the edge of the melted cheese. Using a spatula, carefully roll the cheese around the pickle, creating a cheesy wrap.
- Drain and Serve: Remove the cheese-wrapped pickle from the skillet and place it on a paper towel to drain any excess oil. Serve hot and enjoy!
Notes
- Tip 1: I used petite dill pickles from my fridge, but next time, I might try sandwich slices for a better cheese-to-pickle ratio.
- Tip 2: The amount of cheese you use will depend on the size of the pickle. This is a very forgiving recipe, so you can make a larger cheese circle for a larger pickle.
- Tip 3: Once you make it a few times, you will get the hang of how you love this snack.
