Chicken Marinade and Sandwich Assembly

Method

Preparation and Cooking

  1. 1

    Marinate the Chicken

    In a large bowl, combine the boneless chicken breasts with buttermilk. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight for best results.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Coating

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

  3. 3

    Heat the Oil

    In a large skillet or deep fryer, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).

  4. 4

    Coat the Chicken

    Remove the marinated chicken from the buttermilk, allowing excess to drip off. Dredge each piece in the flour mixture, pressing to adhere.

  5. 5

    Fry the Chicken

    Carefully place the coated chicken into the hot oil. Fry for about 5-7 minutes on each side or until golden brown and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).

  6. 6

    Drain and Assemble the Sandwich

    Remove the fried chicken from the oil and place it on a paper towel-lined plate to drain. Toast the brioche rolls if desired. Assemble the sandwich by placing a fried chicken breast on the bottom half of the roll, topping with Bibb lettuce, and closing with the top half of the roll.
