Easy (Secret Ingredient) Onion Rings

1. 1

   Pour oil in a high-sided skillet and heat over medium high heat while slicing onion. In a medium bowl mix pancake mix, water and seasonings. You can add more water if it's too thick. What you want is a batter consistency.

2. 2

   When oil reaches about 370 degrees, start dipping onion slices into batter, then quickly place into hot oil. (I use a large fork to do this so the extra batter drains away and I don't have to get my hands too messy!) Continue with more onion slices until a single layer is on the bottom of the pan, being careful not to crowd the pan. Fry, turning once, until golden and crispy, about 1-3 minutes per batch. It really depends on the heat of the oil, h0w wet the batter is and how thick the onions are sliced.

3. 3

   Continue with more batches until done. Remove with tongs or a slotted spoon to a paper towel-lined cookie sheet and sprinkle with more salt if needed. The pancake batter is the secret ingredient!
