Ingredients

Notes / Tips
Dry the pickle chips really well before breading so the coating sticks and crisps properly.
Cook in a single layer for the best crunchy texture. Work in batches if needed.
Variations
Make them spicy by adding a pinch of cayenne pepper to the breadcrumb mixture.
Swap the ranch for spicy mayo or garlic dip for a different flavor.
