Delicious tiktok onion ring chips recipe with detailed instructions and nutritional information.

  • Total Time: 35 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 large yellow onion, thinly sliced into rings
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 cup buttermilk

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Separate the onion rings and pat them thoroughly dry with paper towels. Excess moisture will prevent them from crisping properly.
  2. Step 2: In a shallow bowl, whisk together the flour, salt, pepper, paprika, garlic powder, and onion powder.
  3. Step 3: Pour the buttermilk into a separate shallow bowl. Dip each onion ring in the buttermilk, ensuring it's fully coated, then dredge it in the flour mixture, pressing gently to ensure the flour adheres well.
  4. Step 4: Heat about 1 inch of vegetable oil in a large skillet or deep fryer to 350°F (175°C). Carefully add the onion rings to the hot oil, working in batches to avoid overcrowding the pan.
  5. Step 5: Fry the onion rings for 2-3 minutes per side, or until they are golden brown and crispy. Remove them from the oil and place them on a wire rack or paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
  6. Step 6: Season immediately with salt while still warm, and serve immediately.

Notes

  • Store leftover chips in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days, maintaining their crispness best when not stacked.
  • For perfectly reheated chips, briefly air fry or bake at 350°F (175°C) for 2-3 minutes until warmed through and crispy again, avoiding soggy results.
  • Serve these addictive onion ring chips alongside your favorite burger or dipping sauce, such as a spicy mayo or ranch dressing, for a truly satisfying snack or side.
  • To achieve extra crispy chips, double-dip your onion rings in the buttermilk before dredging them in the flour mixture, ensuring a thicker, crispier coating.
