Fried Pickles Preparation Instructions
Prepare the Pickles
Drain the sliced dill pickles and pat them dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture.
Prepare the Breading
In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, cornmeal, baking powder, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder.
Add Buttermilk
Pour in the buttermilk and stir until the mixture is well combined and has a thick batter consistency.
Heat the Oil
In a deep skillet or frying pan, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).
Fry the Pickles
Dip each pickle slice into the batter, allowing any excess to drip off. Carefully place the battered pickles into the hot oil, frying in batches until golden brown (about 2-3 minutes).
Drain and Serve
Once fried, remove the pickles with a slotted spoon and place them on paper towels to drain excess oil. Serve hot with your favorite dipping sauce.
