Ingredients
- 1 large sweet or yellow onion sliced into 1/2-inch thick rings
- 1 cup buttermilk
- 1 large egg
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 Tablespoon cornstarch
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 cup Panko bread crumbs
- oil for frying (canola oil, vegetable oil, or peanut oil are our top choices)
Instructions
- Whisk together buttermilk and egg in a shallow dish.
- Whisk flour, cornstarch, smoked paprika, salt, pepper, and garlic powder together in a separate shallow dish. Add breadcrumbs to a third shallow dish.
- Dredge onion rings in the flour mixture, then in the buttermilk mixture, then breadcrumbs. Set aside for 10-15 minutes until ready to fry. The longer sitting time allows the coating to absorb some of the liquid and get tacky, which helps prevent a lot of it from falling off while frying.
- Heat 1" of oil in a large cast iron skillet or other heavy duty pot like a dutch oven to 350°F to 375°F.
- Fry 3-4 onions rings at a time for 2-3 minutes without crowding the pan. Flip halfway through and only cook until the onion rings are light golden brown and crispy. Transfer fried onion rings to a wire rack set over a baking sheet to drain any excess grease and repeating with remaining onion rings.
Notes
- Storage: Keep leftover onion rings in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat in the air fryer or oven.
- Air fryer onion rings: Instead of frying in oil, spray the breaded onion rings well with some cooking spray and place them in a single layer in the air fryer (you will have to work in batches). Air fry at 350°F for 12 to 15 minutes until nice and crisp on the outside.
