Sandwich Assembly

Method

Prepare Chicken

  1. 1

    Marinate the Chicken

    In a bowl, combine buttermilk, paprika, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Add the chicken breasts, ensuring they are well coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour (or overnight for best results).

  2. 2

    Dredge the Chicken

    In a shallow dish, add the flour. Remove chicken from marinade, shaking off excess. Dredge the chicken in flour, pressing lightly to ensure an even coating.

  3. 3

    Cook the Chicken

    Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Fry the chicken for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Alternatively, grill the chicken on a preheated grill for about 6-8 minutes per side.

Prepare Sandwich

  1. 4

    Assemble the Sandwich

    Toast the burger buns. On the bottom half, layer crispy lettuce, followed by the fried or grilled chicken, sliced avocado, tomato, red onion, and butter pickles. Drizzle with ranch dressing and top with the other half of the bun.

Prepare Fries

  1. 5

    Cook the Fries

    Prepare the frozen French fries according to package instructions. Season with salt to taste.
