Copycat Burger King Onion Rings

• 2 medium white onions
• 1 -2 cup milk
• 1 -2 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 -2 cup Progresso Plain Bread Crumbs
• vegetable shortening or oil, to deep fry
• salt

1. Heat up your shortening or oil to 350 degrees.
2. Cut onions into 1/4 inch thick slices, then separate the slices into rings.
3. (I leave 2 rings together for a thicker onion ring).
4. Pour the milk, flour and breadcrumbs in three separate bowls.
5. (To make it easy, I mix the flour and milk together, and it seems to stick better as well.
6. If the flour/milk mixture is too thick, add a little more milk to make it the right consistency for dipping).
7. Now bread all of the onion rings: First dip an onion into the milk, then into the flour.
8. Dip it back into the milk, then into the breadcrumbs; and once more into the milk and into the breadcrumbs.
9. (Or, if you mix the flour and milk like I do, dip in flour/milk mixture, then breadcrumbs, and repeat once or twice more).
10. This gives each onion ring a nice thick breading.
11. Fry a handful of the rings at a time for 1 1/2 to 3 minutes or until golden brown.
12. Remove rings from the oil to a rack or paper towels to drain.
13. Lightly salt them and serve them up right away.
