These Thin and Crispy Onion Rings are perfect for burgers, as a side dish or eat them for a snack! You might want to double the recipe though – they’re addicting! You have to wonder how something so simple can be so darn good?! #onionrings #sidedish #snacks
Call me crazy, but I love onions! I especially love these Onion Rings because they’re thin and crispy …. and not full of some thick batter with a little bit of onion! You can taste the onion! I originally made these to go with hamburgers, but I couldn’t stop eating them! Seriously … I had to make more! Be forewarned, you will not be able to restrain yourself – or maybe that’s just me?!
I know a few people who know these as “onion straws” … whatever you call them, they’re delicious! And simple!! Super simple! A mandolin or a food processor is the easiest way to get super thin slices – but if you don’t have those tools, a sharp knife and steady hand will do the trick too! (watch those fingers though!)
In a pinch, regular milk with vinegar or lemon juice (1 tsp. lemon juice or vinegar and fill the rest of the measuring cup with milk – allow to stand for about 5 minutes before using) can be substituted for the buttermilk.
Serve these Onion Rings on your favorite burger, along side a juicy steak, as an appetizer or as a side dish. You really can’t go wrong! Enjoy! 🙂

These look great! I am going to have to try out making some of my own. Pinned!
I think that I will try.
That's exactly why I'm always iffy about onion rings–usually too much breading and not enough onion. They're called onion rings not breading rings! They look perfect, Jamie.
Thanks for linking–your onion rings were one of the top-viewed links!
These looks so good – so many different ways to eat them! I'm thinking of sprinkling them on top of scrambled eggs…
