Fried Banana Peppers

Preparation

Preparation and Cooking

1. Prepare the Banana Peppers

Wash the banana peppers, slice them into rings, and remove the seeds if desired.

2. Set Up the Breading Station

In one bowl, place the all-purpose flour mixed with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. In a second bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk. In a third bowl, place the cornmeal.

3. Bread the Peppers

Dip each banana pepper ring first into the flour mixture, then into the egg mixture, and finally coat them with cornmeal.

4. Fry the Peppers

In a large skillet, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Fry the breaded banana peppers in batches until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes per side. Remove and drain on paper towels.

5. Serve

Serve the fried banana peppers hot with your choice of house-made dipping sauce.
