Oven Baked Onion Rings




The other day I was in the mood for Onion Rings but was not in the mood for all the fat that deep frying brings! So I baked them! It was really easy to make and a great side dish for some simple chicken wraps. I knew how I was going to make them, but checked out this website for an oven temp. and baking time. Also, I used an organic yellow onion (all I had) but next time I will use a Vidalia. There just didn't seem to be enough onion taste coming through. But other then that, they were great!

Ingredients
Adapted from Cooks.com

1 onion, sliced into rings
1/4 - 1/2 cup AP flour
1 egg white
2 tbsp skim milk
1/2-1 cup plain Panko Bread crumbs
salt
pepper
Directions
Preheat oven to 450 degrees and spray a large baking sheet covered with foil with non stick spray. Sprinkle onion rings with salt and pepper to taste.

In one bowl, place flour. In another, mix together egg white and milk with a fork. In a third bowl, place Panko.

Dust onion rings with flour until coated thoroughly. Then, dip in egg white mixture. Next, cover in Panko making sure there is a nice coating. Place in a single row on your baking sheet and bake for 10 minutes, or until golden brown.
