Method

Chicken Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken

    Start by seasoning the chicken breasts with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika on both sides.

  2. 2

    Setup Breading Station

    Set up a breading station with three bowls: one with flour, one with beaten eggs, and one with breadcrumbs.

  3. 3

    Bread the Chicken

    Dredge each seasoned chicken breast in flour, shaking off excess. Dip into the beaten eggs, then coat with breadcrumbs, pressing down to ensure even coverage.

  4. 4

    Fry the Chicken

    Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add the breaded chicken breasts and cook for about 5-7 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through (internal temperature should be 165°F).

Kicken' Sauce

  1. 5

    Mix the Sauce

    In a small bowl, combine mayonnaise, hot sauce, honey, and pickle juice. Mix well until smooth and creamy.

Assembly

  1. 6

    Assemble the Burger

    On the bottom half of each burger bun, place a generous amount of kicken' sauce. Add the fried chicken breast on top, followed by pickles and lettuce (if using). Finally, place the top half of the bun over the chicken.
