Fried Pickles

This is great for game day, a get together or anytime.

I’ve used hamburger pickles, but you can use cut up dill spears too.

2  c.  dill pickles slices 

1/3 - 1 c. flour
1 egg
2 -  3 T. oil (adjust amount needed)
1/8 - 1/4 tsp. each: salt, pepper
Pinch each: paprika, dried parsley, granulated garlic, turmeric

In a bowl crack 1 egg, half of salt, pepper. 

Beat with a fork to mix.

Remove pickles from jar, pat dry with a paper towel.

In a bowl combine flour, the rest of salt, pepper, herbs and spices.

Dredge pickles on both sides with the egg.

Dredge pickles lightly on both sides with flour.

Preheat skillet to medium high heat.

Lower heat to medium, add oil.

Cook pickles in batches on one side for 3 - 5 minutes.

Flip over & cook pickles on other side for 3 - 5 minutes or until golden brown.

Remove pickles from pan and place on a paper towel lined plate.

Serves 4 - 6.
