Ingredients
- 12 dill pickle slices
- 1 ½ cups Panko bread crumbs
- ½ teaspoon cayenne pepper optional
- oil for frying
Batter
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup milk
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 egg
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- ½ teaspoon dried dill optional
Instructions
- Preheat oil to 360-370°F. Whisk Panko, cayenne pepper, and ½ teaspoon salt.
- In a medium bowl whisk flour, milk, baking powder, egg, paprika, black pepper, and dill until smooth. Let rest for at least 5 minutes.
- Meanwhile, dab the pickle slices dry with paper towels.
- Place about ½ cup of Panko bread crumbs in a bowl. Note: If the crumbs get wet, they don’t stick so it’s best to work in small batches.
- Dip each pickle slice in the flour mixture and then gently dip into the bread crumbs. Set the dipped pickles on a baking sheet and let them rest for a few minutes while you dip the remaining pickles. This will allow the crumbs to stick better.
- Fry in small batches for 3 to 4 minutes or until brown and crispy. Transfer to a paper towel lined plate and immediately sprinkle with salt.
- Serve with ranch or your favorite dipping sauce.
