Spicy Onion Rings

Ingredients:

1 quart cooking oil for frying

1 cup dry pancake mix

4 teaspoons spicy powdered seasoning (I prefer Old Bay)

1 large Spanish onion, sliced into rings

Directions:

Prepare pancake mix according to package directions and add the spicy seasoning.

In an electric skillet or deep-fat fryer, heat 1" of cooking oil to 375 degrees.

One at a time, dip the onion rings into the prepared pancake batter, then into the hot oil.

Fry each ring until crispy and browned, about 2 minutes. Don't try to fry many at one time. They will stick together.

Drain on paper towels.
