Fried Pickle Dip
Description
This Fried Pickle Dip begins by toasting panko breadcrumbs in butter to a golden brown, introducing a nutty flavor and crunchy texture. The dip base mixes chopped pickles, sour cream, ranch seasoning, and pickle juice for a creamy and tangy profile. Some reserved panko and pickles top the dip before serving, adding a crunchy, fresh finish. If made ahead, the dip can be refrigerated without toppings and garnished just before serving to maintain crispness.
The flavor combines the tang from pickles and pickle juice with the richness of sour cream and aromatic ranch seasoning. The toasted panko provides texture contrast. It pairs well with chips, pretzels, or fresh vegetables like cucumbers and carrots.
Store leftovers covered in the refrigerator for up to four days. Stir in extra pickle juice before serving if the dip thickens over time.
Ingredients
- 1 tbsp butter
- 1/2 cup panko breadcrumbs
- 1 cup pickles chopped
- 2 cups sour cream
- 1 ranch seasoning 1.5-ounce packet
- 1/4 cup pickle juice
- dill optional
Instructions
- Melt butter in a large skillet over medium-low heat. Add panko and toast until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes.
- Reserve some panko and chopped pickles for topping, and add the remaining panko, chopped pickles, sour cream, ranch seasoning, and pickle juice to a bowl and stir to combine.
- If you are serving immediately, top with chopped pickles, toasted panko, and dill.
- If you are serving later in the day, store it in an airtight container in the fridge without the toppings. When you are ready to serve, transfer to a serving bowl and add the pickles, panko, and dill.
Notes
- Store the dip in an airtight container refrigerated for up to 4 days.
- Reserve toppings separately to add just before serving for best texture.
- If dip thickens after storage, stir in a little extra pickle juice to refresh consistency.
- Serve with chips, pretzels, cucumbers, carrots, or celery for dipping.
