Ingredients
Units
Scale
- 1 cup pickle chips (drained and patted dry)
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 egg (beaten)
- 1 cup breadcrumbs (preferably panko)
- Cooking spray or olive oil spray
Instructions
- Prepare the pickle chips: Start by draining and patting the pickle chips dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture. This will help the coating stick better.
- Prepare the dredging station: In one shallow bowl, combine flour, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. In a second bowl, beat the egg. In a third bowl, place the breadcrumbs.
- Coat the pickle chips: Dip each pickle chip first into the flour mixture, then into the beaten egg, and finally coat it in the breadcrumbs.
- Preheat the air fryer: Preheat the air fryer to 375°F (190°C).
- Air fry the pickle chips: Arrange the coated pickle chips in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Lightly spray them with cooking spray. Air fry for 8-10 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden brown and crispy.
- Serve: Remove from the air fryer and serve immediately with your favorite dipping sauce, such as ranch or spicy mayo.
Notes
- Make sure to pat the pickles dry thoroughly to ensure the breading sticks well.
- You can use gluten-free flour and breadcrumbs for a gluten-free version.
- For extra crunch, try using a double coating on the pickle chips.
