Description

Transform humble jarred dill pickles into a crave-worthy, golden-brown appetizer with this classic fried recipe. The key is drying the pickle slices thoroughly before dipping them in a tangy egg-and-pickle-juice batter, then dredging them in a seasoned flour mix featuring garlic powder and a generous kick of ground red pepper. Deep-fried until crisp and bubbling, these chips offer a perfect contrast of salty, tangy interior and crunchy, spicy exterior. They are an ideal crowd-pleaser for game day parties, potlucks, or as a unique starter alongside burgers and hot dogs. Simple to prepare with pantry staples, these addictive bites are best served immediately while still hot and crisp.

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Drain the sliced dill pickles, reserving 2/3 cup of the pickle juice.
  2. Press the pickle slices between layers of paper towels to remove excess moisture.
  3. In a shallow bowl, whisk together the reserved 2/3 cup pickle juice, beaten egg, 1 tablespoon flour, and hot sauce until smooth.
  4. In a separate shallow dish, combine 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, ground red pepper, garlic powder, and salt; stir well to distribute seasonings.
  5. Heat vegetable oil in a deep fryer or heavy pot to 375&# 194;°F (190ðC).
  6. Dip the dried pickle slices into the egg mixture, coating them evenly.
  7. Dredge the wet pickles in the seasoned flour mixture, pressing gently to adhere.
  8. Carefully add coated pickles to the hot oil in batches, avoiding overcrowding.
  9. Fry for 2 to 3 minutes, turning once, until golden brown and crisp.
  10. Remove chips with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.
  11. Serve immediately while hot and crunchy.
