Ingredients
16 oz dill pickle chips, drained and patted dry
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
2 large eggs
1 tablespoon milk (dairy or non-dairy)
1 cup panko breadcrumbs
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon dried dill
Salt and pepper to taste
Olive oil spray (for air frying)
Instructions
- Preheat the air fryer to 400°F (200°C) for about 5 minutes.
- Set up three bowls: one with flour, one with beaten eggs and milk, and one with panko breadcrumbs mixed with garlic powder, paprika, dried dill, salt, and pepper.
- Dip each pickle chip first in the flour, then into the egg mixture, and finally coat it generously in the seasoned breadcrumbs.
- Place the coated pickles in a single layer in the air fryer basket and spray them lightly with olive oil.
- Air fry at 400°F (200°C) for 8–10 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden and crispy.
- Serve hot with ranch dressing or your favorite dipping sauce.

Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 3 days.
Reheat in the air fryer at 350°F for 3–5 minutes to regain crispiness.
