PARMESAN FRIED ONION

Categories     appetizer

Time 35m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

Vegetable oil, for frying
1 cup milk
2 large eggs
4 cloves garlic, finely chopped
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup grated Parmesan, plus more for garnish
2 teaspoons paprika
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1 large sweet onion, such as Vidalia
Chopped fresh Italian parsley, for garnish
Mayonnaise, for dunking

Steps:

  • Fill a large pot or Dutch oven with enough oil to submerge the onion, with space around the sides for it to "bloom." (You might need up to a gallon, depending on the size of your onion, but don't worry; you can strain the oil and use it again for frying, so it won't go to waste.) Preheat to 400 degrees F.
  • Combine the milk, eggs, garlic, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a generous amount of pepper in a medium bowl. Whisk to combine.
  • Combine the flour, Parmesan, paprika, garlic powder, 1 teaspoon salt and a generous amount of pepper in a large bowl. Toss with a fork to combine.
  • Cut off the top of the onion and place cut-side down. Think of the onion as the face of a clock, and cut slits at noon, 3, 6 and 9, cutting almost but not quite to the center of the onion. You'll now have 4 quadrants. Cut 3 more slits in each quadrant, once again cutting almost but not quite to the center of the onion. Flip the onion and gently separate the "petals" with your fingers.
  • Put the onion in the flour mixture and sprinkle it over and around to coat, gently separating the petals as needed to completely coat it.
  • Put the onion in the egg wash and coat evenly in the egg, opening the petals again as needed. Let the excess egg wash drip back in the bowl.
  • Put the onion in the flour once more and sprinkle it over and around to coat, making sure to keep the petals as separate as you can.
  • Use a large spider to lower the onion, cut-side up, into the hot oil. The temperature of the oil will immediately begin to drop. Adjust the heat so the oil stays around 350 to 360 degrees F for the remainder of frying. With a fork, separate the petals a bit more, if needed. Fry the onion until the tips are golden, 3 to 4 minutes. Use the spider to gently flip the onion and continue to fry until the entire onion is crisp, deep golden and cooked through, 3 to 4 minutes more. Drain on a paper towel-lined plate.
  • Transfer the onion while still hot to a serving plate. Season with salt and pepper. Shower with chopped parsley and grated Parmesan. Serve with mayo for dunking.

CRUNCHY CHICKPEAS WITH ALEPPO PEPPER AND LEMON ZEST



Crunchy Chickpeas With Aleppo Pepper and Lemon Zest image

Zippy lemon zest and mildly spicy Aleppo pepper are tossed together with warm roasted chickpeas for a satisfying snack, which pairs well with everything from a gin and tonic to a cold beer. Tossing the dried, toasted beans in oil after they roast helps gives the pepper and lemon something to adhere to. If you're not having cocktails, these can be used in a salad in place of croutons or anywhere you want some crunch. If you don't have Aleppo pepper, red-pepper flakes make a fine substitute.

Categories     beans, appetizer

Time 45m

Yield About 1 cup

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 (15-ounce) can chickpeas, drained and patted very dry
2 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 teaspoon Aleppo pepper or red-pepper flakes
Kosher salt
1 teaspoon lemon zest

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 400 degrees. Spread chickpeas out evenly on a sheet pan and roast until crisp and golden in spots, shaking the pan occasionally, about 20 to 25 minutes. Turn off the oven and let the chickpeas hang out for another 10 to 15 minutes, checking in occasionally to make sure they do not burn. This will help keep them crunchy for an extended period of time.
  • In a 10-inch skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-low heat. Add chickpeas and toss to coat in the oil. Stir in Aleppo pepper and season well with salt. Remove from heat and sprinkle with the lemon zest and toss again. Serve warm. Store any leftovers in an airtight container for up to a week.

CHICKPEA SALAD WITH LEMON, PARMESAN, AND FRESH HERBS



Chickpea Salad With Lemon, Parmesan, and Fresh Herbs image

The beauty of this basic recipe is that it can be tweaked in numerous ways. For a spicy version, add some sriracha sauce. Try swapping out the lemon juice for lime juice and use feta cheese instead of Parmesan and mix in some chopped fresh cilantro and chopped red onion or shallot. For a curried chickpea salad, leave out the Parmesan and add curry powder to taste, dried currants, sliced green onions, and shredded carrots.

Yield Makes 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 15-to 15 1/2-ounce can chickpeas (garbanzo beans), rinsed, drained
2 tablespoons chopped fresh basil
2 tablespoons chopped fresh Italian parsley
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
4 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 small garlic clove, pressed
1/3 cup (packed) freshly grated Parmesan cheese
Coarse kosher salt

Steps:

  • Combine rinsed and drained chickpeas, chopped fresh basil, chopped Italian parsley, fresh lemon juice, extra-virgin olive oil, and pressed garlic clove in medium bowl. Add grated Parmesan cheese and toss gently to blend all ingredients thoroughly. Season chickpea salad to taste with coarse kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper. DO AHEAD: Chickpea salad can be made 4 hours ahead. Cover and refrigerate. Serve salad chilled or at room temperature.

Tips:

  • To achieve the crispiest chickpeas, ensure they are thoroughly dried before frying. Pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel or use a salad spinner to remove excess moisture.
  • Use a large skillet or Dutch oven for frying to prevent overcrowding. This will help the chickpeas cook evenly and prevent steaming.
  • Do not overcrowd the pan when frying the chickpeas. This will cause them to steam rather than fry, resulting in a soggy texture.
  • Season the chickpeas generously with salt and pepper before frying. This will help enhance their flavor.
  • For a tangy twist, add a squeeze of lemon juice or a sprinkle of white wine vinegar to the chickpeas while frying.
  • Garnish the fried chickpeas with fresh herbs, such as parsley, cilantro, or basil, for an extra pop of flavor and color.
  • Serve the fried chickpeas immediately with your favorite dipping sauce or as a snack on their own.

Conclusion:

These fried chickpeas with Parmesan, lemon, and almonds offer a delightful combination of flavors and textures. They are crispy on the outside, tender on the inside, and bursting with zesty lemon and nutty Parmesan flavor. Serve them as an appetizer, snack, or side dish, and they are sure to be a hit with your family and friends. Experiment with different herbs and spices to create your unique flavor variations. Enjoy!
