Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Dill pickle slices
- 1 cup All-purpose flour
- 1 cup Cornmeal
- 1 tablespoon Cajun seasoning
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 cup Buttermilk
- 4 cups Vegetable oil
Instructions
Drain the dill pickle slices thoroughly using a paper towel to remove excess moisture.
In a medium-sized bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, cornmeal, Cajun seasoning, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper.
Pour buttermilk into a separate bowl.
Heat vegetable oil in a deep fryer or large pot to 375°F (190°C).
Dip each pickle slice into the buttermilk, ensuring it is fully coated.
Dredge the pickle slice in the flour and cornmeal mixture, pressing lightly to ensure the coating sticks.
Carefully place the coated pickles in the hot oil, working in batches to avoid overcrowding. Fry for 2-3 minutes or until golden brown.
Use a slotted spoon to remove the fried pickles from the oil and transfer them to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.
Serve immediately with your favorite dipping sauce, such as ranch dressing.
