Ingredients

  • 1 qt oil for frying, or as needed

  • 1 large onion, cut into ½ inch slices

  • 1½ cups all-purpose flour

  • 1 tsp baking powder

  • 1 tsp salt

  • 1 egg

  • 1 cup milk, more as needed

  • ¾ cup dry Panko crumbs

  • 1 tsp seasoned salt

Directions

  • Heat the oil in a deep-fryer to 365 degrees.
  • Whisk flour, baking powder, and salt in a small bowl.
  • Separate the onion slices into rings, and dip the onion slices into the flour mixture until they are all coated and set aside.
  • Whisk the egg and milk into the flour mixture with a fork to make a batter.
  • Dip the floured onion rings into the batter to coat, then place on a wire rack to drain until the batter stops dripping (the wire rack may be placed over a sheet of aluminum foil for easier clean up).
  • Spread the Panko crumbs out on a plate or shallow dish, then place rings one at a time into the crumbs and scoop the crumbs up over the rings to coat.
  • Give it a hard tap as you remove it from the crumbs; the coating should cling very well; repeat with remaining rings.
  • Deep fry the rings a few at a time for 2 to 3 minutes, or until golden brown.
  • Remove to paper towels to drain and sprinkle with seasoned salt.
