Yield 8-10 pickles

Number Of Ingredients 19

1 tablespoon fresh baby dill
½ cup mayo
¼ cup plain Greek yogurt
¼ cup milk
¼ cup buttermilk
1 tablespoon white balsamic vinegar
¼ teaspoon onion powder
¼ teaspoon garlic powder
⅛ teaspoon ground white pepper
salt, to taste
1 (24-ounce) jar dill pickles spears
½ cup all-purpose flour
2 large eggs
½ cup panko bread crumbs
½ cup stone-ground corn meal
¼ cup plain bread crumbs
1 tablesoon finely grated parmesan cheese
½ teaspoon cayenne pepper (more or less to taste)
¼ teaspoon black pepper

Steps:

  • In the bowl of your food processor or blender, combine all of the ingredients for the ranch. Blend until smooth and creamy. Pour into a small bowl and cover. Place in the refrigerator until you are ready to use.
  • Preheat your oven to 450 degrees F and spray a large baking sheet with a non-stick spray. Set aside.
  • Drain the jarred pickles and place them on a paper towel-lined plate. Pat completely dry. Set aside.
  • In one shallow bowl, add the flour. In another shallow bowl, add the eggs and whisk to combine. In a third shallow bowl, combine the panko, corn meal, regular bread crumbs, parmesan cheese, cayenne pepper and black pepper. Toss the ingredients until evenly distributed. You shouldn't need any more salt, as the pickles are already extremely salty. If you need more salt, then feel free to salt away.

Toss the pickle to make sure it is evenly coated, pressing to adhere where it is needed. Place on the prepared baking sheet and repeat this step for the rest of the pickles.

FRIED PICKLES WITH PICKLED RANCH DIP



Fried Pickles With Pickled Ranch Dip image

Fried pickles come in many shapes and sizes, but this recipe approaches them in a way that maximizes their crunch: First, it calls for pickle chips, which yield a better coating-to-filling ratio than pickle spears. Next, the pickles are patted dry to remove extra moisture, ensuring that the breading adheres to every nook and cranny. Finally, breading the pickles in a flour-buttermilk-bread-crumb sequence creates a robust crust. When frying breaded ingredients, be mindful of residual cooking: Remove your cooked items from the hot oil just before they reach their desired shade of golden brown, as they'll continue to cook - and darken - after being removed from the heat. Frying the pickles mutes their acidity, but adding chopped pickles to the dill-flecked creamy dip bumps up the brightness.

Time 35m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 3/4 cups drained bread and butter pickle chips (about 8 ounces/48 chips)
1/2 cup mayonnaise
3 tablespoons finely chopped fresh dill
3 tablespoons thinly sliced fresh chives
1/2 teaspoon garlic salt (optional)
1/4 teaspoon onion powder
1 cup buttermilk
Kosher salt and black pepper
3 cups canola or vegetable oil, for frying
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
3 tablespoons hot sauce, such as Crystal
1 1/4 cups Italian seasoned bread crumbs

Steps:

  • Line a large baking sheet with paper towels. Arrange 40 pickle chips (about 1 1/2 cups) in an even layer on top, and cover with another layer of paper towels, pressing gently to absorb excess moisture. Set aside.
  • Prepare the pickled ranch dip: Finely chop the remaining 8 pickle chips. Transfer to a small bowl and add the mayonnaise, dill, chives, garlic salt (if using), onion powder and 1/3 cup buttermilk. Stir to combine, season to taste with salt and chill until ready to serve.
  • Add the oil to a medium saucepan and heat over medium-high until oil comes to 375 degrees, about 5 minutes. Cover another baking sheet with paper towels for draining the fried pickles.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk the flour with 2 teaspoons each salt and pepper. In another medium bowl, whisk the remaining 2/3 cup buttermilk with the hot sauce. Add the bread crumbs to a large shallow bowl. Working in about four batches, add about 10 pickle chips to the flour mixture and toss to coat. Transfer to the buttermilk mixture, turning until coated. Allow the excess buttermilk mixture to drip off, then transfer to the bread crumbs. Turn pickle chips to coat in bread crumbs, packing bread crumbs on top until chips are fully covered, and transfer them to a plate.
  • Add coated pickles to the hot oil, dispersing them evenly, and cook, turning halfway through, until crisp and lightly browned, about 1 minute. Transfer to the paper towel-lined sheet pan. Repeat with remaining pickles, adjusting heat as needed to maintain oil at 375 degrees. Serve immediately, with pickled ranch dip.

Tips:

  • To make perfect pickle spears, select fresh, crisp pickles. Avoid those that are limp or have soft spots.
  • If you don't have a deep fryer, you can also fry the pickle spears in a large saucepan or skillet filled with about 2 inches of oil.
  • To make the homemade ranch dip, use high-quality mayonnaise. This will make a big difference in the flavor of the dip.
  • If you don't have buttermilk, you can make your own by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar to 1 cup of milk. Let it sit for 5 minutes before using.
  • To make the pickle spears extra crispy, double-coat them in the breading mixture.
  • Serve the pickle fries immediately with the homemade ranch dip.

Conclusion:

Spicy pickle fries are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or snack. They are perfect for parties or game day gatherings. The homemade ranch dip is the perfect complement to the spicy pickle fries. It is creamy, tangy, and flavorful. If you are looking for a new and exciting way to enjoy pickles, you should definitely try this recipe for spicy pickle fries with homemade ranch dip.
