1/2 cup plus 2 Tbsp. KRAFT Shredded Parmesan Cheese, divided
1 pkg. (16 oz.) KRAFT or POLLY-O Mozzarella String Cheese, unwrapped
1-1/2 cups oil

Steps:

Beat egg in shallow dish. Mix coating mix and 1/2 cup Parmesan in separate shallow dish.
Dip cheese sticks, 1 at a time, in egg, then in Parmesan mixture, turning to evenly coat both sides of each cheese stick before placing on waxed paper-covered baking sheet. Freeze 2 hours or until firm.
Heat oil in medium skillet to 375°F. Add cheese, in batches; cook 1 min. on each side or until golden brown. Remove cheese from skillet to platter; cover to keep warm. Top with remaining Parmesan. Serve with pasta sauce.
