Ingredients

Scale

Onion Rings

  • 2 large onions, sliced into 1/4-inch rings

Batter and Coating

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 cup buttermilk
  • 2 cups panko breadcrumbs

For Frying

  • Vegetable oil for frying (enough to submerge onion rings)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Oil: Heat vegetable oil in a deep fryer or large pot to 350°F (175°C), ensuring there is enough oil to fully submerge the onion rings for even frying.
  2. Make the Flour Mixture: In a medium bowl, mix together the all-purpose flour, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
  3. Prepare the Buttermilk: Pour the buttermilk into a separate bowl, ready for dipping the onion rings.
  4. Coat the Onion Rings: Dip each onion ring into the buttermilk, allowing the excess to drip off, then dredge it in the flour mixture, shaking off any extra flour.
  5. Bread the Onion Rings: Dip the coated onion ring back into the buttermilk briefly, then coat it with panko breadcrumbs, pressing gently to make sure the breadcrumbs stick well.
  6. Fry the Onion Rings: Carefully place the breaded onion rings into the hot oil in batches, avoiding overcrowding. Fry for 2-3 minutes or until they turn a golden brown and crispy.
  7. Drain and Serve: Remove the fried onion rings with a slotted spoon and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to absorb excess oil. Serve warm with your favorite dipping sauce.

Notes

  • Maintain the oil temperature at 350°F for best results; too low and the rings absorb oil, too high and they burn quickly.
  • Use fresh onions for the crispiest texture and best flavor.
  • Panko breadcrumbs provide extra crunch; substitute with regular breadcrumbs if necessary but expect less crispiness.
  • Buttermilk tenderizes the onion rings and helps the coating stick better.
  • Do not overcrowd the fryer to ensure even cooking and a crispy coating.
