Air fryer fried pickles are dill pickles that are seasoned and fried (in this case air fried) to golden crispy perfection. The zesty seasoning and crunchy crispy coating paired with the salty tang of the pickles makes this the most delicious snack. who knew simple ingredients would make something soooo good. They are good on their own or with a dipping sauce. They are my favorite appetizer at Hooters or Texas Roadhouse and this is a copycat recipe for those.
Even a huge fried food lover will love air fryer pickles even though they aren't deep fried in hot oil. They still come out golden brown just like deep fried pickles just without the added guilt. It makes for the perfect snack food on game day or a side dish for burgers and hot dogs. Just make sure you have enough pickles because they will go fast!
Fried Pickle Ingredients
Pickles- Dill pickle chips are the best cut in my opinion. I've also seen the pickle spears. If you don't want to use a dill pickle, use sweet pickle slices like bread &. butter.
Seasonings- Cajun seasoning and cayenne pepper are the two star seasonings bringing the flavor.
Let's Make This Air Fryer Fried Pickle Recipe!
To ensure we get a good coating on the pickles make sure that the slices are dry. Take them out of the pickle juice and set them on a paper towel to get some of the moisture out for the best results.
In a medium bowl, combine all purpose flour and all seasonings to create the flour mixture used to bread the pickles.
Evenly coat dill pickle slices and shake off excess flour.
Preheat air fryer to 400°. Place pickles in a single layer in the air fryer basket and be sure not to overcrowd the basket. Spray with cooking oil and fry for 7 minutes at 370° then flip over, spray with cooking oil and cook for an additional 7 minutes.
Serve hot on their own or with a ranch dressing or another creamy sauce.
