Quick Fix Spicy Pickles

These quick fix spicy pickles absolutely hit the spot. I love dill pickles, and I love a little spiciness so it was easy to love these pickles. They aren’t overly sweet and they aren’t overly spicy, though you can certainly make them spicier (or less) if you want. I found them to be just right, and perfect for sharing with the neighbors without having worry that they’d be too hot for them.

Whatever you do, do not discard the brine from the jarred pickles when you make a batch of quick fix spicy pickles. Save it for making Nashville hot chicken or for use as a brine for chicken wings. I always save my pickle juice. I also cut off the ends of the pickles. Since that left me with a bowl of pickle pieces, I decided to make a quick and easy pickle relish.

If you have watermelon rinds on hand, make a batch of my watermelon pickles. They’re crazy good too! My quick pickled jalapeno rings are also great.
