Fried Squash Basket Recipe

Fried Squash Basket Directions

1. 1

   Prepare the Squash

   Wash the fresh yellow squash thoroughly. Slice the squash into thin rounds.

2. 2

   Set Up the Breading Station

   In one bowl, combine flour, McKoy’s seasoning, salt, and black pepper. In another bowl, whisk together the egg and milk.

3. 3

   Dredge the Squash

   Dip each squash slice into the egg mixture, then coat with the seasoned flour mixture, ensuring they are well covered.

4. 4

   Heat the Oil

   In a large frying pan, heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).

5. 5

   Fry the Squash

   Carefully place the breaded squash slices in the hot oil in batches, avoiding overcrowding. Fry until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes per side.

6. 6

   Drain and Serve

   Remove the fried squash from the oil and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil. Serve hot with your choice of dipping dressing.
