Method

Chicken Preparation

  1. 1

    Season the Chicken

    In a bowl, season the chicken breasts with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Ensure they are evenly coated.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Breading Station

    Set up a breading station with three bowls: one with flour, one with beaten egg, and one with breadcrumbs.

  3. 3

    Bread the Chicken

    Dip each seasoned chicken breast first in the flour, then in the egg, and finally coat with breadcrumbs, pressing gently to adhere.

  4. 4

    Fry the Chicken

    In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the breaded chicken breasts and fry for 5-7 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove and place on paper towels to drain excess oil.

Sandwich Assembly

  1. 5

    Prepare the Vegetables

    Wash and dry the lettuce. Slice the tomato and onion into thin rings. Set aside.

  2. 6

    Assemble the Sandwich

    On each bread roll, spread a generous amount of garlic aioli. Layer with lettuce, followed by the fried chicken breast, tomato slices, onion rings, and pickles.

  3. 7

    Serve

    Close the sandwich with the other half of the bread roll and serve immediately with your favorite side.
