1/4 cup milk

Recipe
1. Make the dipping sauce by combining the ranch dressing and cayenne pepper in a small bowl.
2. Heat the oil to 350 degrees F in a deep fryer or saucepan with a thermometer attached to it.
3. Remove all of the pickle slices from the jar and lay them out flat on paper towels. Use more paper towels to blot the pickle slices until they are dry
4. Combine the beaten egg and milk in a small bowl.
5. Combine the flour, salt, garlic powder, paprika, and cayenne pepper in a shallow bowl or in a pie pan.
6. Bread each of the pickle slices by first coating with the dry blend, then the egg and milk, then back to the dry stuff. Arrange all of the breaded pickle slices on a baking sheet until they are all breaded.
7. Fry the pickles in the hot oil in batches of 10 to 15 at a time for 2 minutes, or until golden brown. Serve with the dipping sauce on the side.
