Oven “Fried” Pickles
Adapted from Skinnytaste.com
Ingredients:

• 2 -16 oz jars (48 slices) sliced oval dill hamburger pickles, I used Vlasic
• 1/2 cup of Panko crumbs – I found these at Wal-Mart near the Shake-n-bake
• 1/4 cup of cornmeal
• 1/4 cup of flour
• Mrs. Dash Southwest Chipotle Seasoning, to taste, I probably used a tablespoon or more.
• 1/4 cup dried parsley
• 1 large egg
• 1 large egg white
• olive oil spray (about 1 tsp)

Directions:

Place pickles to drain on paper towels.

Mix crumbs and flour together along with paprika, parsley, and half the chipotle powder and salt.

Whisk eggs and egg whites in a bowl and season with remaining chipotle powder.

Dip pickles in egg mixture and then into the crumb mix, pressing down on the crumbs.

Heat oven to 450°F along with 2 baking sheets. When the oven reaches 450°, remove baking sheets and spray with olive oil spray; place pickles on the baking sheets and spray the tops of the pickles with the more oil.  Bake 8-10 minutes, turn and spray if needed and cook an additional five minutes. Remove pickles from cooking sheet and serve hot with dip.

I served these with Hidden Valley Light Ranch!
