I have a love-hate relationship with fried pickles... I love that they taste so good, but I hate the calories. Today I tried my hand at a "lighter" baked version. They turned out really nice, crispy on the outside and pickley goodness on the inside. Pair with your favorite dipping sauce and you would never know they were baked.
For the Pickles:
- 1 jar pickle slices
- 2 eggs
- 1/3 cup flour
- 1 tbs Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tsp hot sauce (I used Sriracha)
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp Cajun seasoning
- 1 tsp pepper
- 1 1/2 panko bread crumbs (I used regular)
Turn oven broiler on high
In a medium bowl, whisk together eggs and flour
Add Worcestershire sauce, hot sauce, garlic powder, Cajun seasoning, and pepper
Mix well
Place bread crumbs in a shallow dish
Dunk each pickle slice into the egg mixture, then dredge it in the bread crumbs
Place coated pickles on a rack set above a baking sheet and sprayed with non-stick cooking spray
Place pan in the middle rack of the oven
Broil for about 3 minutes on each side
I mixed sour cream and my favorite horseradish for a spicy dipping sauce. This stuff is crazy hot - if you love a good horseradish, you should try this (Smart and Final).
Enjoy!
