Time 50m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 cups vegetable oil for frying
3 cups Italian-seasoned bread crumbs
1 teaspoon garlic powder
½ teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
½ teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 egg
1 cup milk
4 dill pickles, quartered lengthwise

Steps:

  • Combine bread crumbs, garlic powder, salt, pepper, and cayenne pepper in a bowl; set aside. Whisk egg and milk together in a separate bowl. Dip dill pickle spears into the egg mixture, then into the bread crumb mixture until well-coated. Dip the pickles in the egg and bread crumb mixtures a second time so each spear is double coated. Arrange pickles in a single layer on a baking sheet. Place the baking sheet in the freezer until the breading is set, about 30 minutes.
  • Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Fry the pickles in the preheated oil until light golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes. Drain on a paper towel-lined plate.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 45m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

One 16-ounce jar dill pickle chips
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon ground cayenne pepper
1 1/2 teaspoons Cajun seasoning
1 cup buttermilk
A couple of dashes hot sauce
1 1/2 cups panko
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
Kosher salt
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/2 cup mayonnaise
4 teaspoons ketchup
1 teaspoon prepared horseradish
1/2 teaspoon Cajun seasoning

Steps:

  • For the pickles: Preheat a 3.5-quart air fryer to 390 degrees F. Set a wire rack inside a baking sheet.
  • Drain the pickles and spread them out on a paper towel-lined baking sheet. Pat dry with more paper towels, pressing gently to remove as much moisture as possible. Eliminate any pickles with large holes or ones that are very thin.
  • Set up a breading station using 3 medium bowls: Whisk together the flour, cayenne and 1/2 teaspoon Cajun seasoning in one bowl. In the second bowl combine the buttermilk and hot sauce. In the last combine the panko, Italian seasoning, the remaining 1 teaspoon Cajun seasoning and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Drizzle in the oil and use your hands to toss and coat the panko.
  • Working in small batches, bread the pickles: First, toss a handful of pickles in the flour mixture, shaking off any excess. Then dunk them in the buttermilk mixture to completely coat, shaking to remove any excess. Finally, toss them in the panko, pressing gently to make it adhere. Arrange the breaded pickles on the prepared baking sheet and repeat until all the pickles are breaded.
  • Arrange one-third of the breaded pickles in the basket of the air fryer in a single layer. Cook for 8 minutes, the pickles will be very crunchy and browned on both sides. Remove to a serving plate and repeat with the remaining two batches of pickles.
  • For the dipping sauce: Meanwhile, whisk together the mayonnaise, ketchup, horseradish and Cajun seasoning in small bowl.
  • Serve the warm pickles with the dipping sauce or use them and the dipping sauce to top your favorite burger.

EASY SPICY FRIED PICKLES WITH GARLIC MAYONNAISE



Easy Spicy Fried Pickles With Garlic Mayonnaise image

Ok ... So I was watching food network with a friend tonight and they had on "Unwrapped" ... fried pickles. Well, it reminded me of my best friend whose Mom showed me how to make fried pickles a few years back, and I love them. She used small round slices of dill pickles, Italian bread crumbs (but I changed to panko), and then a garlic spicy aioli and they were amazing. Rather than fries, try a few of these with your bratwurst or with a burger and what a nice change. Just something a bit different. Well I haven't made them in over a year and it made me realize what a nice recipe it was and how much I missed making them. They are so easy, but so good and the spicy mayo really makes the dish.

Provided by SarasotaCook

Categories     Vegetable

Time 30m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/2 cup mayonnaise
1 teaspoon minced garlic
1/2 teaspoon lemon juice
1 (32 ounce) jar dill pickle slices
1 cup vegetable oil (approximately 1/2-inch in a saute pan (I like my cast iron for this, but use whatever you have)
1/2 cup flour
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper (go easy if you don't want too much spice)
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 cup panko breadcrumbs (put in the mini food processor to grind up slightly)
2 eggs, beaten

Steps:

  • Aioli -- just mix the mayonnaise, garlic and lemon and put in a small bowl and cover and refrigerate.
  • Pickles -- In a large baggie I add the flour, salt, black pepper and cayenne and mix well. Then add in the pickles (Note: I like to dry off the pickles first -- you don't want them wet) and lightly toss. Make sure to dust off most of the flour. Set on a plate for Part II.
  • Pickles Part II -- Grind the panko crumbs in a small food processor until you have a fine crumb mixture. Now in 2 bowls add the egg to one bowl and the panko crumbs to the other one. Dredge the pickles already dusted in flour in the egg and then into the panko crumbs to coat well and set on a plate ready to be fried.
  • Pickles Part III -- In a large frying pan heat up the oil to 350 degrees or medium high heat. Now add 10 or so pickles at a time and fry until golden brown on each side. They only take a few minutes per side. Remove to a plate lined with a paper towel to let drain.
  • Serve warm with the garlic aioli dip. A great change from fries with ketchup.

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 22

Nonstick cooking spray, for the cooling rack
2 large eggs
1/3 cup all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon hot sauce, such as Tabasco
1 teaspoon chili powder
1 teaspoon garlic powder
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 cup panko breadcrumbs
1/2 cup grated Parmesan
One 16-ounce jar sliced dill pickles
Diamond Sevens Ranch Dressing, recipe follows
1 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup milk
1 1/2 teaspoons apple cider vinegar
2 teaspoons chopped fresh parsley
1 teaspoon chopped fresh dill
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon garlic salt
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon black pepper

Steps:

  • Place an oven rack in the middle position and preheat the oven to broil. Spray a cooling rack with nonstick cooking spray and place it on top of a baking sheet.
  • Whisk the eggs with the flour, Worcestershire sauce, hot sauce, chili powder, garlic powder and a pinch each of salt and pepper in a medium bowl. In a large bowl, combine the breadcrumbs and Parmesan. Drain the dill pickles and pat dry with paper towels. Working in batches, toss the pickles in the egg mixture so they are fully coated. Remove the pickles, letting the excess egg drip off, and transfer to the breadcrumb mixture. Toss to fully coat. Spread the pickles out on the prepared cooling rack in a single layer (with none overlapping).
  • Place the baking sheet on the middle rack in the oven and broil until the tops of the pickles are a crisp golden brown, about 4 minutes. Flip the pickles and continue to cook until crisp golden brown all over, about 4 minutes.
  • Serve warm with the Diamond Sevens Ranch dressing.
  • In a blender, blend the mayonnaise with the milk, vinegar, parsley, dill, salt, garlic powder, garlic salt, onion powder and black pepper until smooth, about 2 minutes.

Tips:

  • Choose the right pickles. Look for pickles that are small and firm, with a good crunch. Gherkins or dill pickles are popular choices.
  • Use a flavorful breading. The breading is what gives fried pickles their crispy exterior. You can use a simple breadcrumb mixture, or experiment with different flavors, such as adding garlic powder, onion powder, or paprika.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan. When frying the pickles, make sure to leave enough space between them so that they can cook evenly. Otherwise, they will steam instead of fry, and they won't be as crispy.
  • Fry the pickles until they are golden brown. This will ensure that they are cooked through and have a delicious crispy coating.
  • Serve the fried pickles with your favorite dipping sauce. Ranch dressing, blue cheese dressing, or tartar sauce are all popular choices.

Conclusion:

Fried pickles are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or snack. They are perfect for parties or potlucks, and they can also be served as a side dish. With so many different recipes to choose from, you're sure to find one that you'll love. So next time you're looking for a fun and tasty treat, give fried pickles a try!
