Fried Pickles

Method

Fried Pickles Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Breading

    In a medium bowl, mix together the flour, cornmeal, baking powder, salt, and black pepper.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Wet Mixture

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

  3. 3

    Heat the Oil

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

  4. 4

    Coat the Pickles

    Dip each pickle chip into the wet mixture, allowing excess to drip off, then coat with the dry mixture.

  5. 5

    Fry the Pickles

    Carefully place the coated pickle chips into the hot oil. Fry in batches until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes per side.

  6. 6

    Drain and Serve

    Remove the fried pickles from the oil and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil. Serve hot with ranch dressing.
