Buffalo Chicken Sandwich Ingredients

Method

Buffalo Chicken Sandwich Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken

    In a bowl, combine buttermilk, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Add the chicken breasts and marinate for at least 30 minutes.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Breading

    In a separate bowl, mix together the all-purpose flour and cornstarch. Remove chicken from the marinade and dredge in the flour mixture, ensuring it's well coated.

  3. 3

    Fry the Chicken

    Heat vegetable oil in a deep skillet over medium-high heat. Fry the chicken breasts until golden brown and cooked through, about 6-8 minutes per side. Remove and drain on paper towels.

  4. 4

    Prepare the Buffalo Sauce

    Toss the fried chicken in buffalo sauce until evenly coated.

  5. 5

    Make the Rainbow Slaw

    In a bowl, combine shredded cabbage, shredded carrots, mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, sugar, and mix well. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

  6. 6

    Prepare the Spread

    In a small bowl, mix together blue cheese and boursin cheese to create a creamy spread.

  7. 7

    Assemble the Sandwich

    Spread the blue cheese-boursin mixture on the burger buns. Place the buffalo chicken on top, followed by dill pickle slices and a generous scoop of rainbow slaw. Top with the other half of the bun.
