Homemade 'Fried' Pickles in the Oven

Pickles in general are one of my favorite foods. Add some fried goodness to them and it's heaven. However, hubs and I are trying to eat better so the typical fried pickle is out of the question. I came across this recipe and was skeptical about it. BUT we were pleasantly suprised. Nothing of course is as good if it's not actually fried, but these were pretty delicious! Still quite a bit of calories, for those who care, but it makes eating healthier and eating fried pickles at the same time an option!

Ingredients:
1 jar pickle slices
2 eggs
1/3 cup flour
1 TB Worcestershire sauce
1 tsp hot sauce
2 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp pepper
1 1/2 cups panko bread crumbs

Directions:
- Turn the broiler on high.
- In a bowl whisk the eggs, flour, Worcestershire sauce, hot sauce, garlic powder, and peppber.
- Put panko crumbs in a seperate bowl.  Coat each pickle with the egg mixture and then cover with the panko crumbs (the easiest way to do this is to dunk the pickle into each bowl -it makes your hands gross though just be forewarned!).
- Place coated pickles on coated cookie sheet. Place on the middle rack. Broil for 3 minutes on each side.

For our dip I just mixed some ranch dressing and hot sauce! YUM!
