Ingredients
- 4 chicken breast fillets
- 2 cups buttermilk
- 2 tablespoons hot sauce
- 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 3 cups vegetable oil
- 4 burger buns
- 0.5 cup mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon sriracha
- 2 cups coleslaw mix
- 8 slices bread and butter pickles
Directions
Step 1
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the buttermilk and hot sauce.
Step 2
Place the chicken breast fillets in the buttermilk mixture and let them marinate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 4 hours for extra flavor.
Step 3
In another bowl, mix the flour, paprika, garlic powder, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper.
Step 4
Remove the chicken from the buttermilk mixture, allowing the excess to drip off. Dredge each piece of chicken in the seasoned flour until fully coated.
Step 5
Heat the vegetable oil in a large, deep skillet over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).
Step 6
Carefully fry the chicken fillets in the hot oil, cooking for 3-4 minutes on each side or until golden brown and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C). Remove the chicken from the oil and drain on a plate lined with paper towels.
Step 7
In a small bowl, mix the mayonnaise and sriracha to make a spicy mayo.
Step 8
Toast the burger buns lightly in a dry skillet or under the broiler.
Step 9
Assemble the sandwiches by spreading the spicy mayo on the bottom halves of the buns. Top each with a fried chicken fillet, coleslaw mix, bread and butter pickles, and the top bun.
Step 10
Serve immediately and enjoy your Kicking Chicken Sandwiches!
