Crispy Chicken Sandwich

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Marinate Chicken

    In a bowl, combine buttermilk, salt, and pepper. Add chicken breasts and let marinate for at least 30 minutes in the refrigerator.

  2. 2

    Prepare Breading

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

  3. 3

    Bread Chicken

    Remove chicken from buttermilk, allowing excess to drip off. Dredge each piece in the flour mixture until well coated.

  4. 4

    Fry Chicken

    In a large skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat. Add chicken and fry for about 5-7 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through. Remove and drain on paper towels.

  5. 5

    Prepare Coleslaw

    In a bowl, combine coleslaw mix and coleslaw dressing. Mix well and set aside.

  6. 6

    Assemble Sandwich

    Toast the hamburger buns. Spread mayonnaise on each bun. Place fried chicken on the bottom bun, add pickles, and top with coleslaw. Cover with the top bun.

  7. 7

    Serve the crispy chicken sandwich with a side of French fries.
