🛒 Ingredients You’ll Need

  • 1 jar (16 oz) dill pickle chips or spears, drained and patted dry
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup buttermilk
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tsp hot sauce (optional, for kick)
  • 1 ½ cups breadcrumbs (Panko for extra crunch)
  • ½ tsp garlic powder
  • ½ tsp paprika
  • ¼ tsp black pepper
  • ½ tsp salt
  • Oil for frying (vegetable or peanut oil recommended)

👩‍🍳 How to Make Fried Pickles – Step-by-Step

1. Prep the Pickles

Drain your pickles and pat them very dry with paper towels. The drier they are, the crispier the final result.

2. Set Up Your Breading Station

  • Bowl 1: Flour
  • Bowl 2: Whisk buttermilk, egg, and hot sauce
  • Bowl 3: Mix breadcrumbs with garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper

3. Bread the Pickles

Dip each pickle slice first into the flour, then the buttermilk mixture, and finally coat well with the seasoned breadcrumbs. Place on a tray or parchment paper.

4. Fry the Pickles

Heat about 1½ inches of oil in a skillet or deep fryer to 375°F (190°C). Fry the pickles in small batches for 2–3 minutes until golden brown and crispy. Do not overcrowd the pan.

5. Drain and Serve

Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil. Serve hot with ranch dressing, chipotle mayo, or your favorite dipping sauce.

🍽️ Serving Suggestions

  • Perfect for game day platters
  • Serve alongside burgers, sliders, or BBQ
  • Add to a Southern-style snack board
  • Pair with cold beer or lemonade

🔁 Variations & Tips

  • Air Fryer Fried Pickles: Spray with oil and air fry at 400°F for 10–12 minutes, flipping halfway
  • Use cornmeal or crushed cornflakes for a Southern twist
  • Add Parmesan cheese to the breadcrumb mix for extra flavor
  • For a spicy version, toss in cayenne pepper or jalapeño powder

❓ FAQs – Fried Pickles

Q: Can I use pickle spears instead of chips?
A: Yes! Spears work great too, but chips tend to be crispier and cook faster.

Q: How do I keep fried pickles crispy?
A: Dry the pickles thoroughly before breading, and don’t overcrowd the frying pan.

Q: Can I bake fried pickles?
A: Yes. Bake at 425°F for 15–20 minutes, flipping once, and spray with oil for crispiness.

Q: Are fried pickles gluten-free?
A: Not with regular flour and breadcrumbs. Use gluten-free versions to make it celiac-friendly.

❄️ Storage & Reheating

  • Best served fresh, but you can refrigerate leftovers for 1–2 days
  • Reheat in an air fryer or oven to restore crispiness
  • Not suitable for freezing once cooked
