Ingredients:
For the Chicken:
2 chicken breasts, cut into fillets
1 cup buttermilk
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup cornstarch
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp smoked paprika
1/2 tsp black pepper
1/2 tsp salt
Vegetable oil (for frying)
For the Spicy Sauce:
1/2 cup mayonnaise
2 tbsp hot sauce
1 tsp smoked paprika
1/2 tsp garlic powder
For Assembly:
2 brioche buns, toasted
Lettuce leaves
Pickles (optional)
Instructions:
Marinate the Chicken:
In a bowl, combine the chicken fillets with buttermilk. Let it marinate for at least 30 minutes to tenderize the chicken.
Prepare the Breading:
Mix flour, cornstarch, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper in a shallow dish. Coat each chicken fillet in the mixture, ensuring it’s evenly covered. For extra crunch, dip the fillet back in the buttermilk and coat again.
Fry the Chicken:
Heat vegetable oil in a skillet to 350°F (175°C). Fry the breaded chicken fillets for 4-5 minutes on each side or until golden brown and fully cooked. Remove and drain on paper towels.
Make the Spicy Sauce:
In a small bowl, mix mayonnaise, hot sauce, smoked paprika, and garlic powder. Adjust the heat level by adding more hot sauce if desired.
Assemble the Sandwich:
Spread the spicy sauce generously on both sides of the toasted brioche buns. Layer lettuce, the crispy chicken fillet, and pickles (if using). Top with the other half of the bun.
Serve and Enjoy:
Serve immediately with fries or a side of your choice. Bite into the crunch and savor the heat!
Pro Tip: Add a slice of melted cheese for an extra indulgent twist!
This crispy chicken sandwich is sure to impress and satisfy your cravings. Enjoy!
