Fried Onion Strips with Dipping Sauce
I like these Fried onion strips with dipping sauce more than I like regular ole onion rings. They’re dangerously addicting, with a light batter coating and the perfect dipping shape and size.

For the onion strips Heat oil to 375 F in a deep fryer or Dutch oven.
Whisk together buttermilk, egg and hot sauce in a large bowl.
Combine flour, cayenne, salt, and pepper in a medium bowl and pour into a 1 gallon re-sealable baggie.
Add onion slices to the buttermilk mixture and stir gently to coat.
Shake off excess buttermilk and add onion slices to flour mixture. Seal and gently shake to coat.
Working in batches, fry onions until golden brown. Remove to a paper towel-lined plate to drain.
Serve with dipping sauce.
