Ingredients
1 pound fresh mushrooms, cleaned and sliced
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 eggs, beaten
1 cup breadcrumbs
1 teaspoon garlic powder
½ teaspoon paprika
Salt and pepper to taste
Vegetable oil for frying
Ranch dressing (for dipping)
Instructions
- Set up three shallow bowls: one with flour, one with beaten eggs, and the third with breadcrumbs mixed with garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper.
- Dip each mushroom slice into the flour, followed by the beaten eggs, and coat it in the seasoned breadcrumb mixture.
- Heat vegetable oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Once hot, carefully add the breaded mushroom slices in batches, avoiding overcrowding the pan.
- Fry each mushroom for 2-3 minutes per side until golden brown and crispy. Remove and drain on paper towels.
- Serve the fried mushrooms hot with ranch dressing for dipping. Enjoy!
Notes
For extra flavor, add grated Parmesan cheese or dried herbs like thyme or oregano to the breadcrumb mixture.
Make sure the oil is hot enough to ensure crispy mushrooms. Use a thermometer to reach 350°F (175°C) for the best results.
Fried mushrooms are best enjoyed immediately but can be reheated in the oven or air fryer for a crunchy texture.
