Doneness
Breading is crisp again; cheese just begins to soften when squeezed; the stick still holds its shape.
Technique
Lower temperature than the original cook — the cheese is already melted, so the goal is to warm gently while crisping the breading. Single layer, no oil.
Watch out for
- Do not go above 360 °F or beyond 4 minutes — the cheese melts through the breading and floods the basket.
- Skip the reheat if the breading has already split during the first cook; the cheese will escape immediately on a second pass.
