Herb Crusted Onion Rings with Yogurt Paprika Sauce

– Herb Crusted Onion Rings with Yogurt Paprika Sauce –

Growing up onion rings where something that I always dreamed about. Here in Spain they used to not be so popular, however within the last 10 years they have gained a lot of popularity with all the new American restaurants opening up around here. Onion rings are like the perfect appetizer, loaded with a great crunch and flavor, and of course you need a tasty dipping sauce to dunk them into for an explosion of flavors.

A New Take on an Old Classic
