For extra crispy onion rings, chill the breaded onion rings in the refrigerator for 15-20 minutes before frying. Use a candy thermometer to monitor the oil temperature and adjust as needed to maintain 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Don't overcrowd the pan, as this will lower the oil temperature and result in soggy onion rings. For a spicy kick, add 1/2 teaspoon of cayenne pepper to the flour mixture.
