BAKED BEER BATTERED ONION RINGS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°.
• Cut the onion crosswise into 3/4-inch-thick slices, and separate into rings.
• Use 16 of the largest rings; reserve remaining onion for another use.
• Lightly spoon flour into a dry measuring cup; level with a knife.
• Combine flour, salt, paprika, and pepper in a medium bowl.
• Stir in beer and egg white (batter will be thick).
• Heat 1 1/2 teaspoons oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat.
• Dip 5 onion rings in batter, letting excess drip off.
• Add onion rings to pan; cook for 2 minutes on each side or until golden.
• Place the onion rings on a jelly-roll pan.
• Repeat procedure of dipping onion rings in batter and cooking in remaining oil, ending with 6 rings.
• Coat the onion rings with cooking spray.
• Bake at 400° for 10 minutes or until crisp.
• Note: Unless for some unknown reason you have an open can of beer in your refrigerator, try this simple way to flatten the suds you need for this batter.
• Measure 1/2 cup beer in a small bowl, and stir with a fork.
• You're left with about 1/3 cup flat beer.
