Ingredients for Buttermilk Fried or Grilled Chicken Sandwich

Method

Directions for Buttermilk Fried or Grilled Chicken Sandwich

  1. 1

    Marinate the Chicken

    In a large bowl, combine the chicken breasts and buttermilk. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, preferably overnight.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Black Garlic Aioli

    In a small bowl, mix the mayonnaise with minced black garlic. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Set aside.

  3. 3

    Fry or Grill the Chicken

    If frying, heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Remove chicken from buttermilk and let excess drip off. Season the chicken with salt and pepper. Fry for about 6-7 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through. For grilling, preheat the grill and cook chicken for about 6-7 minutes per side, until cooked through.

  4. 4

    Sauté the Mushrooms

    In a separate pan, sauté sliced mushrooms in a little oil until golden and soft.

  5. 5

    Assemble the Sandwich

    On the bottom half of each challah bun, spread a generous amount of black garlic aioli. Add a piece of fried or grilled chicken, top with sautéed mushrooms, a slice of Swiss cheese, pepperoncini, and lettuce. Place the top half of the bun on and serve.
