Default life saving onion rings!

Oh my goodness, yall. These are amazing and save you from having a cravings disaster. I dont knoe about you, but i dont miss sweets. I miss the salty, the crunchy. Chips etc... well, this satiates those cravings like nothing else. I have been doing chicken fried steaks with parmesan and egg batter and the lightbulb moment just occurred.

Take a med-large onion. Cut it pretty big 1/2-3/4" slices and separate into rings. I did two pieces per ring. Soak it in a beaten egg for a bit. Then, coat in a mixture of parmesan and almond flour (almond flour optional. Parm is fine by itself) and garlic, ceyenne pepper, season salt, and what ever other spices you desire. Fry in a little bit of oil (not a lot. Barely cover bottom of pan) and flip after a few seconds and then remove when golden or brown. Super good and super easy.

Makes 4 servings at about 4 net carbs per serving. Depends on size of onion i believe.

Default Thank you!

Oh yes. These are good. Thank you. I had very much missed my onion ring fix. I'm going to try baking them next time (I'm not not great at frying). I did chili and cayenne pepper and there was a great burn.

I just tried this... but I messed it up somehow. The rings didn't get very crunchy (other than the onion still being slightly raw), so I decided to just throw the rest of the egg and the remaining almond flower/parmesan crumbs into the mix.

I'll try again another time.

Baking should work well as it works well for chicken and chops with parm/almond meal coating. I just brush some oil over the top after breading and I don't bother turning them. It's a lot less work than standing at the stove and getting splattered with oil!
