How does an air fryer work?
The air fryer is essentially an amped-up countertop convection oven. Its compact space facilitates even faster cooking. The top of the unit holds a heating mechanism and a fan. Hot air rushes down and around the food placed in a fryer-style basket. This rapid circulation makes the food crisp, much like deep frying. Learn more about what an air fryer really does to your food.
What other foods can I make in an air fryer?
Air fryers do a fantastic job of cooking frozen foods (or similar recipes made from scratch) that are meant to taste deep-fried. Some of our other favorite air-fryer appetizers are French fries, chicken wings and mozzarella sticks. Maybe best of all, air fryers can bake, too! Be sure to try out our best air-fried recipes.
How can I make my air-fryer pickles extra crispy?
To get your pickles extra crispy, let the pickles drain out as much liquid as possible. Pat them dry before coating, and then coat only when you’re ready to fry them so that the moisture doesn’t soak into the breading. You can also try toasting the bread crumbs.
INGREDIENTS
1 16 ounce jar of Dill pickle chips
1 package of extra crunchy Shake n Bake Chicken Coating
Spray Olive Oil
FOR THE DIPPING SAUCE:
1 cup of Miracle Whip
1/4 cup of Ketchup
1/4 teaspoon of Dill
1 teaspoon of sugar
1 teaspoon lemon juice
1 teaspoon of garlic salt
3 – 4 shakes of Tabasco – or more if you like your sauce spicy
INSTRUCTIONS
Take a few of the dill pickle chips from the jar of pickles, and place them in the Extra Crunchy Shake n Bake coating.
Shake the pickles in the coating mix, to completely coat them, and then lay the pickles in the Air Fryer.
Spray the pickles with the Spray Olive oil.
Repeat coating the pickles, placing them in the air fryer, and spraying them with Spray olive oil until the air fryer is full.
Turn the temperature to 400 degrees, and set the time for 9 minutes.
While they’re cooking, make the sauce: In a small bowl, add the Miracle Whip, Ketchup, dill, sugar, lemon juice, garlic salt, and Tabasco.
Stir well until all ingredients are well blended.
Serve fried pickles with dipping sauce. Enjoy!
