JFC Onion Rings dipped in a Popeyes style marinade and tossed in JFC Frickin Good Chicken Breading. Deep-Fried for 2–4 minutes. These are seriously good. I was like, why doesn’t KFC make Onion Rings, these are fantastic! Turns out they do, starting in 2015 I believe. I have never seen them, but then again I don’t go to KFC anymore. I just make JFC at home all the time.
This recipe uses a showcase JAH Product, JFC~Frickin Good Breading
Onion Rings
Slice the onion into rings about 1/4 inch thick or thicker. Then dip into the wet batter and bread with JFC Breading.
You can also chop the onions into wedges or nuggets, which are really just half wedges.
White Onions will result in very sweet Onion Rings, while Yellow ones are your standard Onion Rings, which are less sweet and a bit more pungent.
Popeyes Style Marinade
There are quite a few ways to do Onion Rings. No breading/the classic, Breadcrumbs, or Panko Flakes. The common element here is the wet batter.
I usually make a side of Onion Rings, when making Popeyes Style Chicken using the leftover Popeyes Style marinade. You can use JAH Deep Fry Batter too. Which is just a simplified version of the Popeyes Style marinade. Either way, dip the onions in JFC Breading before deep-frying.
JFC Breading
JFC~Frickin Good Chicken Breading is the breading that the Onion Rings will get tossed in. Really outstanding, I was surprised how good these were. They just add a flavor to the onion rings that works so well.
Deep Frying JFC Onion Rings
Drop the Onion rings in and Deep fry the Onion rings at 375 F — 400 F for 2–4 minutes. Give the basket a shake to ensure all the rings come loose and don’t stick to each other.
