Blooming Onion with Chipotle Mayonnaise

Who knew this popular restaurant appetizer was so easy to make?
Makes 1 blooming onion, about 2 to 3 servings
½ cup unbleached, all-purpose flour
1 large egg, lightly beaten
2 tablespoons buttermilk
½ cup panko breadcrumbs
½ teaspoon garlic powder
¼ teaspoon kosher salt
Pinch freshly ground black pepper
Pinch cayenne pepper
1 large, sweet onion, peeled
Olive oil, for spraying
Nonstick cooking spray
½ cup mayonnaise
1 chipotle chile in adobo, finely chopped
¼ teaspoon fresh lemon juice
1 . Prepare Chipotle Mayonnaise: Put mayonnaise, chipotle and lemon
juice in the work bowl of a mini food processor . Process on High until
completely puréed and homogenous . Transfer to a serving bowl,
cover, and refrigerate until ready to serve .
2 . Place the AirFryer Basket onto the Baking Pan . Coat the basket with
nonstick cooking spray . Reserve .
3 . Put the flour into a bowl large enough to dip the onion . Put the egg
and buttermilk into another similar-sized bowl, and the breadcrumbs
and seasonings in a third, similar-sized bowl . Reserve .
4 . Trim the top of the onion to create a flat surface . Leave the root end
intact . Turn the onion over, so the root end faces up, and rest it on its
flat surface .
5 . Without piercing the root, cut the onion into 4 wedges . Also without
piercing the root, cut each wedge in half; repeat until wedges are
about ¼ inch thick .
6 . Turn the cut onion over and carefully, without breaking the pieces off
the root, separate the layers; the separated onion will resemble a
flower with petals .
7 . Dredge the onion in the flour, and gently shake off the excess before
dipping into the egg mixture, and then finally coating each layer
evenly with the panko mixture . Evenly spray the coated onion with
olive oil .
8 . Coat the AirFryer Basket with nonstick cooking spray . Put the pre-
pared onion into the basket . Set the temperature to 400°F and AirFry
for 10 minutes . Onion is done when it is crispy and golden brown in
color .
