Stuffed Fried Pickles Recipe By Tasty Food

ALMOST-FAMOUS FRIED PICKLES

Steps:

• Make the sauce: Mix the mayonnaise, horseradish, ketchup and Cajun seasoning in a bowl; set aside.
• Fry the pickles: Heat 1 inch peanut oil in a pot over medium-high heat until a deep-fry thermometer registers 375 degrees F. Meanwhile, whisk the flour, Cajun seasoning, Italian seasoning, cayenne pepper, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/2 cup water in a large bowl until smooth. Spread the pickles on paper towels and pat dry.
• Add half of the pickles to the batter and toss to coat. Remove from the batter using a slotted spoon, letting the excess drip off, and add to the oil one at a time. Fry until golden brown, 1 to 2 minutes; remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. Return the oil to 375 degrees F and repeat with the remaining pickles and batter. Serve immediately with the prepared sauce.

FRIED CHEESY PICKLES

Steps:

• Pour 2 inches oil into a large pot and heat to 360 degrees F. Line a plate with a paper towel.
• Stir together the ranch dressing and sriracha to taste in a bowl. Set aside.
• Drain the pickles and use a paper towel to pat off any excess moisture (I like to save the brine and use it again!). Wrap each pickle in a slice of cheese, then fold and roll the cheese-wrapped pickle in an egg roll wrapper. Fold up the left side, then the right and roll up tightly like a burrito, using a bit of water on your finger to seal the sides.
• Working in batches to not overcrowd the pot, fry the pickles until golden brown and crispy on all sides, 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer to the lined plate to drain and cool slightly. Slice in half crosswise and serve with the Sriracha ranch.

FRIED PICKLE SLIDERS RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large pot until it reaches 350˚F (120˚C).
• In a small bowl, combine the flour, garlic powder, onion powder, thyme, cayenne, paprika, salt, and pepper, and mix until evenly distributed. Dredge the pickles in the flour mixture, then the eggs, and then the bread crumbs. Fry the pickles for 3 to 5 minutes, or until browned and crispy on the outside.
• For the ranch dressing, add the buttermilk, mayonnaise, sour cream, garlic powder, onion powder, dill, parsley, salt, and pepper to a medium bowl and stir until well combined.
• Using a toothpick, assemble a slider by layering a fried pickle, the ranch dressing, a meatball, lettuce, a tomato slice, and one more pickle. Repeat with the remaining ingredients.
• Enjoy!

STUFFED DILL PICKLES

Steps:

• Cut off both ends of the dill pickles to create a flat surface.
• Using a thin potato peeler or a sharp knife or Uncle Bill's Dill Pickle Corer, and core out each dill pickle. (You can save the core for another use).
• Stand the pickles on end on paper towelling and let drain until all liquid is drained, about 30 minutes. In addition, run some rolled paper towelling through the core to remove any liquid that did not drain.
• Meanwhile, in a mixing bowl, cream the cheese, add onion and garlic and mix until well blended. Add Tabasco sauce and mix well to blend.
• Using a cake decorator or a small spoon, stuff each pickle. Wrap the stuffed pickles in plastic wrap and refrigerate until cheese is firm, about 2 hours.
• Before serving, slice pickles into 3/4 inch slices and place slices on a serving plate. (Cover and refrigerate any unused pickles). These pickles are also good for lunches.
• You may also add some finely chopped Smoked Salmon to the filling, or some finely chopped black olives, or finely chopped cooked ham. Try mixing equal amounts of Cheese-Whiz and cream cheese, or use the different cream cheese that are available.
• NOTE: Uncle Bill has developed a stainless steel corer and is now available - z-mail me if you are interested.

YUM ESSENTIALS: CREAM CHEESE STUFFED FRIED PICKLES

Steps:

• PREP/PREPARE
• Gather your Ingredients (mise en place).
• Chef's Note: There are many ways to make fried pickles, in this recipe I went more towards the tempera approach. This allows me to make a much thicker fried pickle than the more traditional, breaded method.
• In a bowl or shallow dish, combine the 1/2 cup flour with the arrowroot powder.
• Thickly slice the pickles... Mine are about 1/2 inch (1.2cm).
• Cut a hole in the middle and stuff with some cream cheese.
• Lay them on a paper towel, and place in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes.
• Add enough peanut oil to a pan, or pot to a depth of 1 inch (2.5cm).
• Chef's Note: Heat the oil to 350f (175c).
• Add all the dry ingredients for the batter into a bowl.
• Chef's Note: You can add additional spices to the the batter to kick it up... more cayenne, pepper, salt, etc.
• Slowly add the club soda, and mix until the batter is formed.
• Chef's Note: Don't mix too hard, a few lumps are expected.
• Dredge the pickles in the flour mixture.
• Shake off the excess and then dip into the batter.
• Allow the excess to drip off, and then place into the hot oil.
• Fry until golden brown, about 1 - 2 minutes per side.
• Drain on paper towels.
• PLATE/PRESENT
• Serve immediately, by themselves or with your favorite dipping sauce. Enjoy.
• Keep the faith, and keep cooking.

AIR FRYER FRIED PICKLES

Steps:

• For the pickles: Preheat a 3.5-quart air fryer to 390 degrees F. Set a wire rack inside a baking sheet.
• Drain the pickles and spread them out on a paper towel-lined baking sheet. Pat dry with more paper towels, pressing gently to remove as much moisture as possible. Eliminate any pickles with large holes or ones that are very thin.
• Set up a breading station using 3 medium bowls: Whisk together the flour, cayenne and 1/2 teaspoon Cajun seasoning in one bowl. In the second bowl combine the buttermilk and hot sauce. In the last combine the panko, Italian seasoning, the remaining 1 teaspoon Cajun seasoning and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Drizzle in the oil and use your hands to toss and coat the panko.
• Working in small batches, bread the pickles: First, toss a handful of pickles in the flour mixture, shaking off any excess. Then dunk them in the buttermilk mixture to completely coat, shaking to remove any excess. Finally, toss them in the panko, pressing gently to make it adhere. Arrange the breaded pickles on the prepared baking sheet and repeat until all the pickles are breaded.
• Arrange one-third of the breaded pickles in the basket of the air fryer in a single layer. Cook for 8 minutes, the pickles will be very crunchy and browned on both sides. Remove to a serving plate and repeat with the remaining two batches of pickles.
• For the dipping sauce: Meanwhile, whisk together the mayonnaise, ketchup, horseradish and Cajun seasoning in small bowl.
• Serve the warm pickles with the dipping sauce or use them and the dipping sauce to top your favorite burger.
