A creamy and tangy Fried Pickle Dip featuring toasted panko breadcrumbs, chopped pickles, and a zesty ranch seasoning blend, perfect as a flavorful appetizer or snack.

Ingredients

Scale

For the Dip

  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1/2 cup panko breadcrumbs
  • 1 cup chopped pickles
  • 2 cups sour cream
  • 1 1.5-ounce packet ranch seasoning
  • 1/4 cup pickle juice

For Garnish (Optional)

  • Dill, for topping

Instructions

  1. Toast the Panko: Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium-low heat. Add the panko breadcrumbs and stir frequently until they are golden brown and toasted, about 3-4 minutes. Remove from heat.
  2. Prepare the Mix: Reserve some of the toasted panko and some chopped pickles for topping. In a bowl, combine the remaining toasted panko, chopped pickles, sour cream, ranch seasoning packet, and pickle juice. Stir until all ingredients are well mixed.
  3. Serve Immediately: If enjoying right away, transfer the dip to a serving bowl. Top with the reserved chopped pickles, toasted panko, and fresh dill if desired.
  4. Make Ahead and Store: If preparing ahead, place the dip (without toppings) in an airtight container and refrigerate. When ready to serve, transfer to a serving bowl and add the reserved chopped pickles, toasted panko, and dill as garnish.

Notes

  • To add extra flavor and texture, garnish with fresh dill or your preferred herbs.
  • This dip pairs wonderfully with chips, crackers, or fresh vegetable sticks.
  • For a spicier kick, consider adding a dash of hot sauce or finely chopped jalapeños to the dip mixture.
  • Storing the toppings separately keeps them from becoming soggy, maintaining their crunch.
  • Adjust the amount of pickle juice based on your preferred tartness.
