Ingredients
- Two eggs cracked freshly
- Two cups of golden bread crumbs
- Chopped fresh parsley, two tablespoons finely minced
- Four teaspoons of signature seafood seasoning, reminiscent of Old Bay®
- Two teaspoons of pure salt
- Two teaspoons of freshly ground black pepper
- A jar of crisp dill pickle spears, sixteen ounces
- Oil ready for sizzling in the pan
Step 1
In a shallow bowl, whisk the eggs until light and fluffy. In another bowl, mix together the bread crumbs, fresh parsley, seafood seasoning, a pinch of salt, and a dash of pepper to create a flavorful coating.
Step 2
Next, slice pickle spears into strips resembling fries. Gently pat them dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture. Dip each pickle strip into the beaten eggs, ensuring it is well coated, then generously coat with the seasoned bread crumbs mixture.
Step 3
Prepare a deep-fryer or a large saucepan by heating oil to the perfect frying temperature. Working in batches, carefully fry the coated pickle strips until they turn a beautiful deep golden brown, usually taking about 2 to 3 minutes per batch. Once fried to perfection, place the pickle fries on paper towels to drain off any excess oil before serving.
