I saw photos of deep fried chili sticks a while back, which looked like mozzarella sticks. When I attempted to make them, however, I found that cutting frozen chili into sticks was much harder than you might think. That’s when I said screw it and cut the block in half and made a massive deep fried chili block of yummy goodness.
If you like crispy, crunchy, deep fried foods this one’s for you! While I try to stay away from a lot of canned foods and cook them myself, Hormel Chili is damn tasty and saved me a ton of time.
Once you try this recipe, deep fried chili will surely become one of your game time snacks.
