Crispy Shallots

Ingredients

2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 shallot, sliced into 1/4-inch rings
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Combine the flour, salt, and pepper in a small bowl. Dredge the shallots in the flour mixture, shaking off any excess flour.

    Step 2

    In a medium skillet over high heat, heat the olive oil. Add the shallot rings and cook without stirring until they turn golden brown, about 2 minutes. Turn them over and cook until they are golden and crisp, about 2 minutes. As the shallots finish cooking, remove them to a plate lined with a paper towel.
