Fried pickles are an American classic that should definitely be served at your next cookout this summer. They are crunchy, salty, and can take on a lot of bold flavors. They can also be made in a deep fryer or simply in a pan with about half an inch of oil. One of the best ways to eat fried pickles is with ranch dressing, but they also go really well with spicy mayonnaise or a simple aioli. However you choose to eat them, you should definitely give fried pickles a go this summer.

Classic

For this classic recipe, pat down some pickle slices and prepare your bowls for drenching. Fill one with a beaten egg, one with flour, and one with breadcrumbs. Dip the pickles in the flour first, then into the egg, and finally into the breadcrumbs. Fry until golden brown and enjoy!

Spicy Cajun

If you like spice, this is the recipe for you. This twist involves making a batter to coat the pickles, which only involves flour, Cajun seasoning, Italian seasoning, cayenne pepper, and water. Mix it all together and put the pickles into it. Get off the access batter before frying, fry until golden and you are ready to eat!
