Ingredients
- 12 large pickle spears, drained and patted dry
- ¾ cup all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp onion powder
- ½ tsp salt
- Freshly ground black pepper to taste
- 2 large eggs, beaten
- 2 cups Panko breadcrumbs
- Vegetable oil for frying
- Ranch sauce or your favorite dipping sauce
Instructions
- Make your dredging station: - Place the flour, garlic powder, onion powder, salt and pepper in a shallow dish- Beat the eggs in a separate shallow dish- Place the Panko breadcrumbs in a third shallow dish.
- Cut the thickest spears lengthwise to make them all roughly the same size. Dredge the pickle spears first in the flour, then the egg, and finally in the breadcrumbs.
- While the oil is heating up in a large skillet over medium-high heat, let the spears sit for 5-10 minutes. This will dry the coating a little and make it stick better to the pickle spears.
- Once the vegetable oil is hot, fry the pickle spears in batches until golden brown. Serve with your favorite dipping sauce.
