INSTRUCTIONS

Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.

For the breading:

Cover two baking sheets with parchment paper or foil, and set aside. In a small bowl, combine the flour, paprika and 2 teaspoons of salt. In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the buttermilk and eggs; add half of the flour mixture to the buttermilk and beat until smooth. In a third bowl, combine the panko, olive oil and remaining 2 teaspoons of salt.

Breading the rings:

Dredge each onion ring in the flour mixture, just enough to coat, and then drop into the buttermilk. Remove and let drain momentarily to remove the excess batter, then dredge in the panko mixture. Arrange breaded rings on the prepared baking sheets in a single layer, placing smaller rings inside bigger rings if necessary.

Place in the oven and cook until the rings start to brown, or about 7 to 10 minutes. Remove from oven and flip each onion ring to ensure even crisping. Place back into oven and cook until golden brown, or another 7 to 10 minutes.

Serve immediately with your favorite dip.
