Crispy fried pickled jalapeños with tangy lime ranch - a perfect beer snack!
Ingredients:
  • 1 (16 ounce) jar large deli sliced jalapeno peppers (such as Mezzetta® Deli-Sliced Jalapenos)
  • 0.5 cup sour cream
  • 1 tablespoon dry ranch dressing mix
  • 1 medium lime, zested and juiced
  • 3 cups vegetable oil
  • 1 tablespoon taco seasoning mix
  • 0.33 cup water
Instructions:
  • Reserve 1/4 cup plus 1 teaspoon of brine from the jar of peppers. Pat the peppers dry with paper towels.
  • In a bowl, mix sour cream, ranch seasoning, lime zest and juice, and one teaspoon of jalapeño liquid. Stir thoroughly and refrigerate up to 3 days before serving.
  • Heat oil in a small saucepan over medium heat until it reaches 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
  • Combine flour, taco seasoning, reserved jalapeño juice, and water in a shallow dish until well mixed. Coat dried jalapeños in cornstarch until lightly covered and shake off excess. Use a fork to coat slices in the flour mixture, allowing any extra to drip off.
  • Fry a batch of coated jalapeño slices in hot oil until golden and crisp for about 1 1/2 minutes. Drain on a paper towel and continue with remaining jalapeños. Serve immediately with ranch dip.
