Crispy and golden, these onion rings are the perfect, crowd-pleasing appetizer—dip them in ketchup and ranch dressing.

Ingredients

  • 3 large onions, peeled and trimmed
  • 1 cup flour
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • 3/4 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp pepper
  • 1 cup non-alcoholic beer (or regular beer)
  • Vegetable oil

Directions

  • Cut onions crosswise into 1/2-inch slices; pull apart into rings.
  • Combine flour, paprika, salt, and pepper in large bowl. Stir in beer, beating with a wire whisk until the foam is gone.
  • Toss onion rings in the batter. Transfer to plate, letting excess batter drip off as you transfer.
  • Heat about 1 tablespoon oil in a large, 12-inch non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.
  • Place half of the onion rings in a single layer in the heated skillet and cook until browned. Turn once and cook for around 1 1/2 minutes on each side. Repeat with remaining onions.
  • Transfer to an ungreased shallow baking pan or cookie sheet, arranging in a single layer. Bake at 425F for 6 minutes, or until crisp.
