- 40-50 dill pickles slices
- 1 ½ cups all purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons cajun seasoning
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 2 large eggs lightly beaten
- Oil or cooking spray
COMBINE: Fish out the pickles from the jar and let them sit in a sieve to drip off excess moisture (but don’t pat them dry, we want all that flavor intact!) Whisk the flour, cajun seasoning, and garlic powder in one bowl. Dip each individual chip in the flour mixture, shake off excess flour, then dip in the beaten egg, and dip again in the flour mixture. Place coated pickle slices on a baking sheet (or plate) and repeat until all the chips are coated.
AIR FRYER: Preheat the air fryer at 375ºF. Add 12-15 pickle slices at a time and spray with cooking spray. Cook for 14-16 minutes total. Flip them over halfway, spray the second side, and continue to cook until golden. Serve warm with buttermilk ranch dressing or my house remoulade sauce (recipe in notes below.)
- House Remoulade: ½ cup mayo + 1 chopped scallion + 1 teaspoon grated garlic + 1 teaspoon cajun seasoning + 1 tablespoon hot sauce + 1 tablespoon lemon juice + 1-2 teaspoons horseradish (optional.) Stir in a bowl and serve!
