Dip the dried pickle slices into the buttermilk and then coat them in the cornmeal mixture. Ensure each slice is evenly coated.
Step 7
Heat canola oil in a deep skillet over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).
Step 8
Fry the coated pickle chips in batches, ensuring they are not overcrowded in the skillet, for 2-3 minutes or until golden brown.
Step 9
Remove the fried pickles with a slotted spoon and place them on paper towels to drain any excess oil.
