Method

Marinating Chicken

  1. 1

    Prepare Marinade

    In a mixing bowl, combine buttermilk, hot sauce, salt, and black pepper. Whisk until well combined.

  2. 2

    Marinate Chicken

    Add the chicken breasts to the marinade, ensuring they are fully submerged. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour or up to overnight.

Breading Chicken

  1. 3

    Prepare Breading Mixture

    In a shallow dish, mix together flour, cornstarch, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper.

  2. 4

    Coat Chicken

    Remove chicken from marinade and allow excess to drip off. Dredge each piece in the breading mixture, pressing gently to adhere.

Cooking Chicken

  1. 5

    Heat Oil

    In a large skillet or deep frying pan, heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat until shimmering.

  2. 6

    Fry Chicken

    Carefully add the breaded chicken to the hot oil. Fry for about 5-7 minutes on each side or until golden brown and cooked through. Use a meat thermometer to ensure the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).

  3. 7

    Drain Chicken

    Once cooked, remove chicken from oil and place on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.

Assemble Sandwich

  1. 8

    Prepare Buns

    Toast hamburger buns lightly if desired. Spread mayonnaise on the bottom half of each bun.

  2. 9

    Add Toppings

    Place a piece of fried chicken on top of the mayonnaise, add a lettuce leaf and a slice of tomato.

  3. 10

    Complete Sandwich

    Top with the other half of the bun and serve immediately.
