Onion Strings with Creamy Sriracha Dipping Sauce
These Onion Strings With Creamy Sriracha Dipping Sauce are the kind you might find piled high on a burger, steak or barbecue chicken sandwich. My family will happily dive into these onion rings as an appetizer, too. Crispy and golden with just the right amount of seasoning, onion rings never ever get old.
It's All About the Dipping Sauce
I simply had to whip-up a scrumptious sauce to go with them using the new Heinz Tomato Ketchup blended with Sriracha. It packs a fabulous punch of heat and flavor and can be used as a topping for sandwiches, too. We love this homemade sauce for dipping chicken tenders, and on grilled burgers, chicken sandwiches and even for dipping fried pickles. It's spicy-sweet making it the perfect companion for these onion strings. If you're an air fryer aficionado checkout this recipe for Air Fried Onion Rings from Cooking Light.
