Rustic chicken bacon mozzarella breadsticks with uneven cheese-blistered edges
TooGut pickFlexible, practical, genuinely delicious.

Think of these as a thinner chicken crust cut for dipping. Bacon brings fat to the lean breast, mozzarella gives the pull and a final hard bake creates the ragged golden edges that make them worth grabbing first.

One step at a time

Let’s cook.

Tick each step as you go. Built-in timers keep the important moments close.

Make a thin chicken base

Heat the oven to 220°C. Mix chicken, egg and Parmesan. Press between baking paper into a rough 24 x 32 cm rectangle, about 7 mm thick.

Pre-bake for strength

Remove the top paper and bake for 14 minutes until firm and golden at the edges.

Load the top loosely

Brush with butter, scatter over mozzarella and add bacon in rough clusters rather than an even grid.

Bake until blistered

Return to the oven for 8 to 10 minutes until the cheese has deep golden patches. Rest for 4 minutes.

Cut imperfect sticks

Use a pizza wheel to cut 12 varied breadsticks. Separate them slightly so the cheese tears into crisp lacy edges.
