Ingredients
- 2 large Avocados
- 1 cup All-purpose flour
- 2 large Eggs
- 2 tablespoons Milk
- 1 cup Breadcrumbs
- 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 4 cups Vegetable oil
Directions
Step 1
Heat vegetable oil in a deep skillet or heavy-bottomed pot over medium heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).
Step 2
Cut the avocados in half, remove the pits, and peel off the skins. Slice each avocado half into 4 wedges.
Step 3
Set up a breading station with three shallow bowls. In the first bowl, add the all-purpose flour. In the second bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk. In the third bowl, mix the breadcrumbs, smoked paprika, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.
Step 4
Gently coat each avocado slice in flour, shaking off any excess. Dip it into the egg mixture, ensuring it's fully coated, and then press it into the breadcrumb mixture, turning to coat well.
Step 5
Working in batches, carefully add the breaded avocado slices to the hot oil and fry for 2-3 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy. Use a slotted spoon to transfer them to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
Step 6
Repeat with the remaining avocado slices.
Step 7
Serve immediately with your choice of dipping sauces, such as chipotle mayo, ranch dressing, or spicy aioli.
