Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup dill pickle chips
- 1 cup buttermilk
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- Vegetable oil for frying
Instructions
- Fill a heavy bottom pan with about 2 inches of oil. Heat over medium heat until it reaches 360º F.
- Arrange the pickle chips on a paper towel, and pat the tops dry.
- Meanwhile, set up a beading station. In the 1st shallow bowl, add the buttermilk. And a 2nd shallow bowl with the flour and spices.
- Dip the pickles into the milk, then into the flour. Gently shake off the excess and place back into the milk and then into the flour mixture for a second time. Place pickle chips on a baking sheet while you coat the rest.
- Carefully add the pickle chips into the hot oil and cook for about 2 minutes per side until they are nice and golden brown. Work in batches to not overcrowd the pan.
- Remove from the oil and place on a wire rack over a baking sheet for the grease to drain away. Season with salt if desired.
Notes
- Ensure oil is hot enough before frying to achieve crispy results.
- Experiment with different seasonings in the flour for added flavor.
