Dill pickle spears are coated in a crispy panko-parmesan crust and baked until golden, then paired with a quick ranch dressing swirled with hot honey. The contrast of tangy pickle, salty crumb, and sweet heat makes these a sharp alternative to standard mozzarella sticks or onion rings for game-day snacking.

Ingredients

  • 24 dill pickle spears, drained and patted dry
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tablespoon water
  • 1 cup panko breadcrumbs
  • 1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 3/4 cup ranch dressing
  • 2 tablespoons hot honey

Method

  1. Preheat the oven to 425°F. Line a baking sheet with a wire rack and spray the rack with nonstick spray.

  2. Lay the pickle spears on paper towels and press gently to remove excess moisture.

  3. Set up a dredging station: place flour in one shallow bowl, whisk eggs with water in a second bowl, and combine panko, parmesan, garlic powder, smoked paprika, pepper, and salt in a third bowl.

  4. Dredge each pickle spear in flour, shaking off excess, then dip in the egg wash, then coat thoroughly in the panko-parmesan mixture, pressing to adhere.

  5. Arrange the coated pickle spears in a single layer on the wire rack, spacing them apart so air circulates.

  6. Drizzle or lightly spray the pickle spears with olive oil.

  7. Bake until golden and crisp, flipping halfway through.

  8. While the pickle fries bake, whisk together the ranch dressing and hot honey in a small bowl until swirled and combined.

  9. Let the pickle fries cool on the rack for 2 minutes before serving hot with the ranch hot honey dip.
