👩‍🍳 Instructions (The AI's Game Plan)

🎯 Follow along with our AI chef's step-by-step adventure. Results may vary wildly!

1

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

⏱️ 5 min (ish) 🌡️ 375°F

AI Wisdom: Ensure the oven is fully preheated before baking.
2

Place one sheet of phyllo dough on a clean surface. Brush with melted butter. Sprinkle with garlic powder, Parmesan cheese, and parsley.

⏱️ 10 min (ish)

AI Wisdom: Work quickly as phyllo dough dries out fast.
3

Cut the sheet lengthwise into 4 strips. Place a mozzarella stick at the bottom of each strip. Roll up, folding in the sides to seal the cheese inside. Brush the outside with more butter.

⏱️ 15 min (ish)

AI Wisdom: Ensure the cheese is fully enclosed in the dough.
4

Repeat with the remaining ingredients. Place the cheese sticks on the prepared baking sheet. Sprinkle with salt and black pepper.

⏱️ 15 min (ish)

AI Wisdom: Evenly space the sticks on the baking sheet.
5

Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown and crispy. Serve hot.

⏱️ 20 min (ish) 🌡️ 375°F

AI Wisdom: Check halfway through baking to ensure even browning.
