Description

A delicious and satisfying sandwich featuring crispy, spicy chicken and a smooth, tangy sauce that delights your taste buds.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 chicken breasts
  • 1 tsp cayenne pepper
  • 1 cup flour
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 cup breadcrumbs
  • 1 cup buttermilk
  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 4 brioche buns
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp pepper
  • Vegetable oil for frying

Instructions

  1. Marinate the chicken breasts in buttermilk, cayenne pepper, salt, and pepper for at least 30 minutes.
  2. In a bowl, mix flour, garlic powder, cayenne pepper, salt, and pepper.
  3. Dredge the marinated chicken in the flour mixture, dip it in beaten eggs, and then coat it with breadcrumbs.
  4. Heat vegetable oil in a deep skillet over medium heat and fry the chicken until golden brown and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes per side.
  5. For the sauce, mix mayonnaise, lemon juice, and a dash of cayenne in a bowl.
  6. Toast brioche buns in butter until golden.
  7. Assemble the sandwich with the crispy chicken, creamy sauce, and any additional toppings like lettuce or pickles. Serve hot.

Notes

For extra flavor, let the chicken marinate for a few hours or overnight. Make sure the oil is hot enough before frying to get a crispy coating.
