Fried Chicken Sandwich Ingredients

Method

Fried Chicken Sandwich Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare Chicken

    In a bowl, mix the flour, cornstarch, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika. Dip the chicken tenders into the buttermilk and then coat them in the flour mixture.

  2. 2

    Heat Oil

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

  3. 3

    Fry Chicken

    Carefully place the coated chicken tenders in the hot oil and fry for about 5-7 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove and place on paper towels to drain excess oil.

  4. 4

    Assemble Sandwich

    On the bottom half of the burger bun, layer the romaine lettuce, fried chicken tenders, tomato slices, onion slices, dill pickles, and drizzle ranch dressing. Top with the other half of the bun.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Serve the fried chicken sandwich warm with your favorite side.
