Equipment
- Deep fryer or large pot for frying
- Tongs or slotted spoon
- Paper towels
- Mixing bowls
- Whisk or fork
- Baking sheet (optional)
Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional for added heat)
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 cup buttermilk
- 2 cups dill pickle chips
- Vegetable oil for frying
Instructions
- Preheat your deep fryer or pot with vegetable oil to 375°F (190°C).
- In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, cayenne pepper (if using), salt, and black pepper. Mix well.
- Place the buttermilk in another bowl.
- Dip the pickle chips into the buttermilk, allowing any excess to drip off.
- Transfer the buttermilk-coated pickles into the flour mixture. Coat them thoroughly, pressing lightly to adhere the flour mixture to the pickles.
- Carefully place the coated pickles into the preheated oil, a few at a time, to avoid overcrowding the fryer or pot. Keep frying for 2-3 minutes or until golden brown.
- Use tongs or a slotted spoon to remove the fried pickles from the oil, allowing any excess oil to drain.
- Place the fried pickles on a paper towel-lined plate or baking sheet to absorb any additional oil.
- Repeat steps 5-8 until all pickles are fried.
- Serve the Texas Roadhouse Fried Pickles hot and crispy with your favorite dipping sauce.
