Air Fryer Appetizers Pickle Sides

Tangy dill pickle spears get dredged in seasoned breadcrumbs and Parmesan, then fried until shatteringly crisp for a snack that hits salty, sour, and crunchy all at once. Dunked in cool ranch or garlicky aioli, they are the reason people crowd the kitchen before dinner. Make them for game day or a movie night and expect requests for a second batch.

Ingredients

8 Dill Pickle - Drained
1/2 Cup All-Purpose Flour
2 Large Egg
1 Tbsp Milk
1 1/2 Cups Bread Crumbs
1/2 Cup Parmesan Cheese
1 Tsp Garlic Powder
1 Tsp Onion Powder
1 Tsp Mild Smoked Spanish Paprika
1/2 Tsp Dried Dill
1/2 Tsp Black Pepper
1 Splash Olive Oil (or Avocado Oil)

Directions

Pat the pickle spears completely dry with paper towels.
Place the flour in one shallow bowl.
Whisk together the eggs and milk in a second bowl.
In a third bowl, combine the panko, seasoned breadcrumbs, Parmesan, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, dried dill, and black pepper.
Coat each pickle spear in flour, dip into the egg mixture, then press firmly into the breadcrumb mixture until fully coated.
Air Fryer: Arrange the pickle spears in a single layer. Lightly spray with cooking spray and air fry at 400°F (200°C) for 8–10 minutes, turning halfway through, until crispy and golden.
Serve immediately with ranch dressing, spicy mayo, chipotle aioli, or dill dip.
