Chicken Sandwich Ingredients

Method

Cooking Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken

    In a bowl, combine flour, cornstarch, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. In another bowl, whisk the egg and buttermilk together. Dip each chicken breast into the buttermilk mixture, then coat with the flour mixture.

  2. 2

    Fry the Chicken

    Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, carefully add the coated chicken breasts. Fry for about 5-7 minutes on each side or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove from oil and place on paper towels to drain excess oil.

  3. 3

    Assemble the Sandwich

    Spread mayonnaise on the bottom half of each sandwich bun. Place a fried chicken breast on top, followed by lettuce and tomato slices. Top with the other half of the bun.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Serve the chicken sandwiches warm with your favorite sides.
