Thin onion rings fried golden and shatteringly crisp, perfect for piling on everything.
7 steps, about 25 minutes start to finish.
Soak the sliced onion rings in milk (or buttermilk) for 15-30 minutes.
Mix together flour, salt, pepper, and garlic powder in a shallow bowl or bag.
Heat oil in a heavy pot or deep skillet to 350°F.
Remove onion rings from the milk, letting excess drip off, and dredge thoroughly in the seasoned flour.
Fry in batches until golden and crispy, about 2-3 minutes per batch.
Drain on paper towels and season with additional salt immediately.
Use as a topping or side. Best served fresh.
“Soak the onion rings in milk first so the flour has something to grab onto for a thick coat. Fry in small batches at 350 so the oil stays hot and they crisp up golden instead of going greasy.”
