Ingredients
- Vegetable oil, for frying
- 1 (16-ounce) jar dill pickle slices
- ½ cup all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons garlic salt
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- ¼ teaspoon pepper
- ¾ cup water
- 1½ cups panko breadcrumbs
Instructions
- Fill a frying pan with ½ inch oil and heat over medium-high heat to 350–375°F.
- While the oil is heating, drain pickles and place them on paper towels. Pat dry to remove excess juice.
- Whisk flour, garlic salt, Italian seasoning, and pepper in a shallow bowl. Add water and mix until smooth.
- Place breadcrumbs in a separate shallow dish.
- Working in batches, add pickles to the batter and toss to coat. Then dip pickles in breadcrumbs, making sure to coat all sides.
- Fry pickles in batches in the oil for 1–2 minutes on each side or until golden brown. Repeat with the remaining pickles.
- Serve immediately with Ranch dressing.

Notes
- Recipe Tips.
- Air fryer directions. Preheat the fryer to 425°F. Bread the pickles as directed, then place in a single layer in the fryer basket and cook for 7–9 minutes. They should be golden brown and crispy. Flip the pickles and cook for an additional 7 minutes on the other side.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 1-2 days.
- Reheat in a 350°F air fryer for 3-5 minutes or in a 400°F oven for 5-10 minutes.
- While you can use sweet pickles, we like dill pickles best. Make sure the pickles are completely dry before dipping.
- Feel free to change up the seasonings in the batter for a different flavor. Add some paprika or chili powder to make it a little spicy.
- Fry the pickles in oil that's 350-375°F. Too low, and they'll become soggy. Too hot, and the pickles will burn.
