Ingredients
  • 8 fresh jalapeño peppers
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon garlic powder
  • 1 tablespoon paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt (plus more to taste)
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 cup buttermilk (or regular milk)
  • Vegetable oil for frying
Instructions
  1. 1

    1. Prepare the Jalapeños:

      • Wash the jalapeños thoroughly.
      • Cut the jalapeños into thin, even slices approximately 1/8 inch thick. For less heat, remove the seeds.

    2. Prepare the Coating:

      • In a bowl, mix the flour, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper.
      • Pour the buttermilk into a separate bowl.

    3. Coat the Jalapeños:

      • Dip the jalapeño slices into the buttermilk, ensuring they are fully coated.
      • Coat the slices in the flour mixture, gently shaking off the excess.

    4. Heat the Oil:

      • Heat 2 inches of vegetable oil in a deep skillet or pot until it reaches 350°F (175°C).

    5. Fry the Chips:

      • Fry the coated jalapeño slices in small batches to avoid overcrowding. Fry for 2-3 minutes, or until they turn golden brown and crisp.
      • Using a slotted spoon, transfer the chips to a plate lined with paper towels to absorb any excess oil.

    6. Serve:

      • Sprinkle additional salt, if desired, and serve immediately. Pair with ranch dressing or your preferred dipping sauce for extra flavor.
