- Heat oil in a deep fryer to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
- Mix flour, cayenne pepper, and salt in a large bowl until combined; add onion slices and toss until well coated.
- Shake off any excess coating and lower onion slices, working in batches, carefully into hot oil. Fry until golden and tobacco-colored, about 3 to 5 minutes. Use a slotted spoon to transfer onion slices onto a paper towel-lined plate to drain and crisp up.
