Beer Battered Onion Rings

Side Dish  Snack 

• 1 quart vegetable oil or shortening for frying
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 cup beer (hey, I just use Bud light ;) )
• 1 pinch seasoned salt (or old bay seasoning is good)
• 1 pinch ground black pepper
• 4 medium sized onions (I use vadellia)
• Quick and Easy dipping sauce:
• 2 Tbsp mayo
• 1 Tbsp ketsup
• chili powder, to taste

Peel onions and cut into 1 inch thick slices. Seperate the rings and set aside to dry a bit.

In a medium bowl, combine flour, salt, and pepper.

Quickly pour in beer and mix until smooth.

Dredge onion slices in the batter, until evenly coated.

Drop into oil one at a time and fry in until golden brown. It may take a few mintutes.

Drain on paper towels or a rack.

Dip onion ring in sauce and drink the remaining beer. ;)

Again, not sure where I found this recipe originally, but it's a favorite of ours on "fair food night". Don't be fooled by the simple recipe or ingredients, these are the best, lightest, crispiest onion rings I've ever had! I've also added a quick easy sauce for dipping!
