Title: Copycat Outback Steakhouse Bloomin’ Onion
Ingredients:
– 1 large onion
– 1 cup all-purpose flour
– 1 tsp paprika
– 1/2 tsp cayenne pepper
– 1/2 tsp garlic powder
– 1/4 tsp dried oregano
– 1/4 tsp salt
– 1/4 tsp ground black pepper
– 1 egg
– 1 cup milk
– Vegetable oil, for frying
Instructions:
1. Start by preparing the onion: Cut off a half-inch from the top and bottom of the onion, then peel the outer skin. Place the onion cut-side down on a cutting board, and make vertical cuts around the onion, leaving about half an inch from the bottom intact.
2. Turn the onion over and gently spread apart the layers to create a blooming effect. Soak the onion in ice water for about 10 minutes to help the petals open up.
3. In a bowl, combine the flour, paprika, cayenne pepper, garlic powder, oregano, salt, and black pepper. Mix well.
4. In another bowl, whisk together the egg and milk until well combined to create the batter.
5. Heat vegetable oil in a deep fryer or a large pot to 350°F (180°C).
6. Dredge the onion in the seasoned flour mixture, making sure to coat each petal. Shake off any excess flour.
7. Dip the onion into the batter, coating it completely.
8. Carefully place the onion in the hot oil, petal side up. Fry for about 3-4 minutes, then carefully flip the onion and fry for an additional 3-4 minutes until golden brown and crispy.
9. Remove the bloomin’ onion from the oil and let it drain on a paper towel-lined plate.
10. Serve your copycat Outback Steakhouse Bloomin’ Onion with your favorite dipping sauce and enjoy!
