Chicken Preparation

Method

Chicken Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken

    Season the chicken breasts with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Set aside.

  2. 2

    Breading Procedure

    In three separate shallow dishes, place the flour in the first, beaten eggs in the second, and breadcrumbs in the third. Dredge each chicken breast in flour, dip in the eggs, and coat with breadcrumbs.

  3. 3

    Fry the Chicken

    In a large skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, carefully add the breaded chicken breasts. Fry for about 5-7 minutes per side or until they are golden brown and cooked through. Remove from the skillet and place on a paper towel to drain excess oil.

Sandwich Assembly

  1. 4

    Toast the Buns

    While the chicken is cooling, lightly toast the brioche buns on a skillet or in a toaster until golden brown.

  2. 5

    Assemble the Sandwich

    On the bottom half of each toasted brioche bun, place a handful of fresh arugula or spinach. Add the fried chicken breast on top, followed by crumbled bleu cheese and shredded mozzarella cheese. Drizzle with balsamic reduction, then place the top half of the bun on.

  3. 6

    Serve

    Serve the sandwiches warm. Enjoy your Blue Hen Chicken Sandwich!
