Remove the liquid from the pickle slices and dry them with paper towels to get rid of extra water. This step is very important to make sure the batter sticks well and becomes crispy.
To prepare the breading area:
In a small bowl, mix flour with paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, cayenne pepper, salt, and pepper.
In another small bowl, mix eggs and buttermilk using a whisk.
In another small bowl, put cornmeal.
To coat the pickles with breadcrumbs:
Put each pickle slice in the flour mix and remove any extra.
Put the pickle slice covered in flour into the beaten egg, allowing any extra to drip off.
Lastly, cover the pickle slice with cornmeal, gently pressing to make sure it sticks well.
To cook the pickles in hot oil:
Heat a good amount of vegetable oil in a big pan on medium-high heat until it reaches 375°F (190°C).
Cook the pickles in small groups, making sure not to put too many in the pan at once. Cook each group of food for approximately 2 to 3 minutes on each side, until they are golden brown and crispy.
Take out the fried pickles using a spoon with holes and put them on a plate with paper towels to remove extra oil.

Enjoy the hot fried pickles with your preferred sauce like ranch, spicy mayo, or barbecue sauce.
Tips for Making Delicious Fried Pickles:
Dry the pickles well before coating them so that the breading sticks better and they become crispier.
Keep an eye on the oil temperature to ensure it stays at approximately 375°F (190°C). If the oil is not hot enough, the pickles will become oily. If it’s too hot, they might get burned.
Eat right away: Fried pickles taste the best when they are fresh and hot, just out of the oil. To keep them warm, place them in a single layer on a baking sheet in a low oven (around 200°F) until you are ready to serve.
Fried pickles are a tasty snack that adds a touch of Southern flair to any get-together.
Whether you are having a party, eating with your family, or just wanting a delicious snack, these crispy and tangy bites will definitely make you happy.
