Fried Pickles Recipe

Fried Pickles Directions

1. 1

   Prepare the Pickles

   Drain the sliced dill pickles and pat them dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture.

2. 2

   Make the Breading Mixture

   In a shallow bowl, combine the flour, cornmeal, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix well.

3. 3

   Prepare the Egg Mixture

   In another bowl, whisk together the buttermilk and eggs until well combined.

4. 4

   Heat the Oil

   In a large, deep skillet or pot, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).

5. 5

   Coat the Pickles

   Dip each pickle slice into the egg mixture, allowing the excess to drip off, then dredge in the breading mixture, ensuring they are fully coated.

6. 6

   Fry the Pickles

   Carefully place the coated pickles into the hot oil, frying in batches to avoid overcrowding. Fry until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes per side.

7. 7

   Drain and Serve

   Remove the fried pickles from the oil and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil. Serve warm with your favorite dipping sauce.
