1 cup all-purpose flour

1 teaspoon cayenne pepper

Salt

1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

  1. Place oil in a deep skillet until it comes about 1-inch up the side of the pan. Heat oil to 360 degrees F.
  2. Mix buttermilk, egg, and hot sauce in a medium bowl. Mix flour, cayenne, 1 teaspoon salt, and pepper in a bag. Pat onion slices dry and dip in the buttermilk mixture to coat.
