Baked Mexican Onion Rings Directions:
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
- In one bowl, mix together the crushed pork rinds, chili powder, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, cumin, salt, and black pepper.
- In another bowl, beat the eggs until well combined.
- Dip each onion ring into the egg mixture, then into the pork rind mixture, pressing gently to ensure the coating sticks well.
- Arrange the coated onion rings in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes, flipping the onion rings halfway through, until they are golden brown and crisp.
- Serve immediately, paired with salsa verde or your favorite dipping sauce.
