Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Prepare mozzarella by cutting it into small cubes, approximately one inch each, and set aside.
  2. Crumble the cooked bacon into smaller bits and wrap a piece of bacon around each mozzarella cube completely.
  3. In a bowl, mix ground chicken with garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, black pepper, and half of the buffalo sauce until well combined.
  4. Flatten a handful of chicken mixture in your palm, place the bacon-wrapped mozzarella in the center, and encase it with the chicken into a ball shape.
  5. Roll each bomb in flour, dip in beaten eggs, then coat with breadcrumbs.
  6. Heat oil to 350°F (175°C) for frying or preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Cook for 5-6 minutes in oil or 18-20 minutes in the oven until crispy.
  7. Drizzle remaining buffalo sauce over cooked bombs, serve hot.
