Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 large onions, sliced into ¼-inch rings

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour

  • 1 tsp garlic powder

  • 1 tsp paprika

  • ½ tsp salt

  • ½ tsp black pepper

  • 1 cup buttermilk

  • 2 cups panko breadcrumbs

  • Vegetable oil, for frying

Instructions

  1. Heat the Oil
    Heat vegetable oil in a deep fryer or large pot to 350°F (175°C). Use enough oil to fully submerge the rings.

  2. Mix the Dry Coating
    In a bowl, whisk together the flour, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper.

  3. Prepare the Buttermilk Bowl
    Pour the buttermilk into a separate bowl.

  4. Dip & Coat

    • Dip each onion ring into the buttermilk (let excess drip off).

    • Coat in the flour mixture and shake off extra.

    • Dip again in buttermilk.

    • Press gently into the panko breadcrumbs until fully coated.

  5. Fry
    Place coated onion rings into the hot oil in small batches. Fry 2–3 minutes, or until crispy and golden.

  6. Drain
    Remove with a slotted spoon and place on paper towels to drain.

  7. Serve
    Enjoy warm with your favorite dipping sauce!

Notes

  • Use sweet onions (like Vidalia) for milder flavor.

  • Keep the oil hot — dropping temperature = soggy chips.

  • Don’t overcrowd the pot or the coating won’t get crispy.

  • Air-fryer option: Lightly spray with oil and cook at 400°F (200°C) for 8–10 minutes, flipping halfway.
