Ingredients

• 2 cups dill pickle chips
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 2 tablespoons cornstarch
• 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 0.5 teaspoon cayenne pepper
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 cup buttermilk
• 1 large egg
• 1.5 cups panko breadcrumbs
• 4 cups vegetable oil
• 0.5 cup ranch dressing (for serving)

Directions

Step 1

Pat the dill pickle chips dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture and set them aside.

Step 2

In a shallow bowl, whisk together the flour, cornstarch, smoked paprika, garlic powder, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper.

Step 3

In a separate shallow bowl, whisk together the buttermilk and egg until well combined.

Step 4

Place the panko breadcrumbs in a third bowl.

Step 5

Dip each pickle chip into the flour mixture, coating both sides, then into the buttermilk mixture, and finally into the panko breadcrumbs, pressing gently to adhere the breadcrumbs to the pickle. Repeat until all pickles are coated.

Step 6

Heat the vegetable oil in a large pot or deep skillet over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C). Use a thermometer to monitor the temperature for consistent frying.

Step 7

Working in batches, carefully add a few coated pickle coins to the hot oil. Fry for 2-3 minutes, turning occasionally, until golden brown and crispy.

Step 8

Use a slotted spoon to transfer the fried pickle coins to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil. Repeat with the remaining pickles.

Step 9

Serve the fried dill pickle coins warm with a side of ranch dressing or your favorite dipping sauce.
