Kitchen Tip : Fried Pickles with Cajun Aioli
Ingredients
-
1 Cup Mayonnaise
-
Juice from 1 Lemon (About 2 Tablespoons)
-
1 Teaspoon Tony’s Original Creole Seasoning
-
1/4 Cup Green Onions, Chopped
-
3/4 Cup Sour Cream
-
1/4 Cup Pickle Juice
-
1/2 Cup Flour
-
1/2 Cup Panko Breadcrumbs
-
1 Teaspoon Tony’s Original Creole Seasoning
-
30 Dill Pickle Slices
-
Vegetable Oil for Frying
- Clear
Directions
- In a small bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, lemon juice and Tony’s Original Creole Seasoning. Stir in chopped green onions. Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.
- In one dish, stir together sour cream and pickle juice. In another, whisk together flour, breadcrumbs and Tony’s Original Creole Seasoning.
- Remove pickles from the jar and set aside. Add a few slices at a time to the sour cream mixture, then transfer to the flour mixture and toss to coat.
- In a stainless pot (cast iron or Dutch oven will also work), heat 1 inch of vegetable oil until you reach 350°F. Tip – if you don’t have a thermometer, place the end of a wooden spoon in the oil. If you see tiny bubbles forming, the oil is ready.
- Fry the pickles in batches, flipping until golden and crispy on all sides. This should take about 2-3 minutes per batch. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate. Serve immediately with Cajun Aioli. Enjoy!
