Baked Beer Battered Onion Rings image

I found this recipe in the March 2000 issue of Cooking Light and have made it several times since. The rings are fried only for a minute, then baked in a hot oven. They are very crisp and yummy!

Time 25m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 large onions, peeled
2/3 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon paprika
1/4 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
1/3 cup flat beer (see note below)
1 large egg white, lightly beaten
1 1/2 tablespoons vegetable oil, divided
cooking spray

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400°.
  • Cut the onion crosswise into 3/4-inch-thick slices, and separate into rings.
  • Use 16 of the largest rings; reserve remaining onion for another use.
  • Lightly spoon flour into a dry measuring cup; level with a knife.
  • Combine flour, salt, paprika, and pepper in a medium bowl.
  • Stir in beer and egg white (batter will be thick).
  • Heat 1 1/2 teaspoons oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat.
  • Dip 5 onion rings in batter, letting excess drip off.
  • Add onion rings to pan; cook for 2 minutes on each side or until golden.
  • Place the onion rings on a jelly-roll pan.
  • Repeat procedure of dipping onion rings in batter and cooking in remaining oil, ending with 6 rings.
  • Coat the onion rings with cooking spray.
  • Bake at 400° for 10 minutes or until crisp.
  • Note: Unless for some unknown reason you have an open can of beer in your refrigerator, try this simple way to flatten the suds you need for this batter.
  • Measure 1/2 cup beer in a small bowl, and stir with a fork.
  • You're left with about 1/3 cup flat beer.
