Baked Beer Battered Onion Rings
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!!
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.
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.
Measure 1 / 2 cup beer in a small bowl , and stir with a fork', you're left with about 1 / 3 cup flat beer"]".
