Step-by-Step Instructions for Onion Ring Chips
  1. Begin by heating vegetable oil in a deep fryer or a large, heavy-bottomed pot to 350°F (175°C).
  2. While the oil heats up, whisk together all-purpose flour, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper in a medium bowl.
  3. In a separate bowl, pour in buttermilk to create a dipping station for the onion rings.
  4. Dredge the onion rings in buttermilk and then in the flour mixture, shaking off excess.
  5. For extra crunch, double dip in buttermilk and then coat in panko breadcrumbs.
  6. Carefully lower the coated onion rings into hot oil in batches and fry for 2-3 minutes until golden brown.
  7. Use a slotted spoon to remove the fried onion rings and let them drain on paper towels.
