Ingredients
- 4 pieces low sodium chicken sausage
- 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
- 1.5 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 cup non-alcoholic beer
- 0.5 cup cold sparkling water
- 0.5 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon paprika
- 4 cups vegetable oil
Directions
Step 1
Begin by heating the vegetable oil in a deep saucepan or deep fryer to 350°F (175°C). Ensure you use enough oil to fully submerge the sausages.
Step 2
In a mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, baking powder, ground black pepper, onion powder, garlic powder, and paprika. Whisk these dry ingredients together until well mixed.
Step 3
Slowly add the non-alcoholic beer to the dry mixture, stirring constantly to avoid lumps. Once the beer is incorporated, add the cold sparkling water, continuing to stir until a smooth batter forms.
Step 4
Pat the low sodium chicken sausages dry with paper towels. This helps the batter adhere better.
Step 5
Dip each sausage into the batter, ensuring an even coat. You may use tongs or a fork to help maneuver the sausages.
Step 6
Carefully place the battered sausages into the hot oil, frying a few at a time to avoid overcrowding, which can lower the oil temperature.
Step 7
Fry each sausage for about 4-5 minutes or until golden brown and crispy, turning occasionally for even cooking.
Step 8
Once cooked, remove the sausages from the oil with a slotted spoon and let them drain on a paper towel-lined plate to remove excess oil.
Step 9
Serve the low sodium battered sausages warm, pairing them with your favorite low sodium dipping sauce or enjoy them on their own.
