Make delicious, crispy homemade onion rings with just a few ingredients! Perfect for grilling burgers, chicken, hot dogs, fish, or whatever you like. Add them to your burgers, salads, or sandwiches for an extra satisfying crunch!

Onion rings are a treat for us, not an everyday treat. But when we grill burgers with friends, I like to have a batch of extra crispy rounds ready to go. They’re breaded and waiting in the fridge, so all I have to do is put them in. Fry just before eating.

I love these super crispy onion rings, using Panko breadcrumbs instead of beer batter. Both are delicious, but there’s something about that crispy, golden look that wins us over every time. And the best part? This easy onion ring recipe only requires a few basic ingredients!
