Step 1

Step 1: Stir together flour, smoked paprika, and 1/4 teas salt in a shallow dish. Lightly beat egg and water in a second shallow dish. Stir together panko and remaining 1/4 teas salt in a third shallow dish. Dredge onion rings in flour mixture, shaking off excess. Dip in egg mixture, allowing any excess to drip off.
