Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

4 cups canola oil, for frying
One 32-ounce jar whole dill pickles
2 1/4 cups panko breadcrumbs
1 teaspoon granulated garlic
1/2 teaspoon paprika
Kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 1/2 cup buttermilk
1 teaspoon hot sauce, such as Crystal brand
Buttermilk Dipping Sauce, recipe follows
1 cup buttermilk
2 tablespoons mayo
1 teaspoon chopped fresh chives
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon chopped fresh dill
1/2 teaspoon cayenne

Steps:

  • In a large Dutch oven or heavy pot, preheat the canola oil to 375 degrees F. Using a mandoline or sharp knife, slice the pickles into 1/8-inch-thick rounds.
  • Place the panko breadcrumbs into a food processer and pulse until finely ground, 3 to 4 pulses. Place the panko into a medium mixing bowl and add the granulated garlic, paprika and some salt and pepper. Place the flour into a separate medium mixing bowl. Place the buttermilk into another medium mixing bowl and season with the hot sauce.
  • Begin coating a few pickle slices at a time by first dredging into the flour and patting off the excess. Then place the floured slices into the buttermilk. Allow the excess to drip off, then transfer to the seasoned panko. Coat in panko then set aside. Repeat until all of the slices are coated.
  • To fry, carefully place a few battered pickles into the hot oil. Cook until golden brown on the first side, 2 to 3 minutes. Then carefully turn over and cook for 2 minutes more. Using a slotted spoon or sieve, remove the pickles and place onto a paper-towel-lined dish to drain. Season with salt and serve hot with the Buttermilk Dipping Sauce.
  • Whisk together the buttermilk, mayo, chives, cumin, dill and cayenne in a medium mixing bowl to combine. Season with salt and pepper. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use.

These pickles were a bit too sour for my taste. I think I'll try using a different type of pickle next time.

I'm not a huge fan of pickles, but I actually really enjoyed these. The buttermilk dipping sauce is what really makes them.

The pickles were good, but the dipping sauce was a bit too tangy for my taste. I think I'll try making a different dipping sauce next time.

I followed the recipe exactly and the pickles turned out great. The only thing I would change is to use a little less salt.

The pickles were crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. The dipping sauce was tangy and creamy.

I've tried many fried pickle recipes, but this one is by far the best. The buttermilk dipping sauce is the perfect complement to the crispy pickles.
