Fried Dill Pickles

A tart dill pickle encased in a crispy, crunchy coating that is just perfect for snacking. I remember growing up, my family would drive over to a restaurant in Anniston, Alabama that served the best fried dill pickles I’d ever eaten.

They were legendary.

And they were an appetizer that if you ordered them, you better believe there wouldn’t be any left by the time you were ready to enjoy your supper!

If you’ve never had Fried Pickles before, you’ve been missing out!!

They’re crispy crunchy and loaded with that dill pickle flavor we all love so much!

You won’t believe how easy these are to make and how much delicious dill pickle flavor they have!

If you’ve never tried or are not sure how to make fried pickles, step up to the plate and try these puffy golden bites. They’re a delicious accompaniment to a burger or a sandwich. For a fun and different appetizer, serve this fried pickle recipe with ranch dressing for a dip.

Coat dill pickle spears in Italian-seasoned breadcrumbs and fry until crispy.  Serve with Ranch or blue cheese dressing for a crowd-pleasing appetizer.
