Onion rings are one of my all-time favorite guilty pleasures. I would take them over fries any day. These parmesan onion rings are deliciously crunchy, and always a huge hit. They are fantastic on a burger or just as a side dish. 

I make them every time with my Jalapeno Pepper Jack Chicken Burger or my Skillet Burger.  Or just munching a big ole plate while watching the game. This recipe gives you the perfect onion ring, crispy on the outside with a sweet onion on the inside...So good!

Step 1 Onions, peel and slice the onions into 1/4-inch thick slices.
Step 2 Mix the flour, In a bowl mix together the flour and spices and toss some onion rings.
Step 3 Egg wash, whisk together the egg wash, and add some dipped onion rings
Step 4 Panko bread crumbs add the seasoned bread crumbs to the bowl and then toss the egg-dipped onion rings into it.
Step 5 Back into the wash
Step 6 Then back in the panko crumbs
Step 7 Baking sheet, place the onion rings on the baking sheet.
Step 8 Heat the oil, and add the onion rings into the hot oil to fry.

Now let's talk about this sauce...it is amazing! Just a touch of heat from the sriracha takes each crispy bite to the next level. Also perfect for dunking some fries, it is so good!
