A delightful recipe for a crispy chicken sandwich, featuring juicy fried chicken topped with tangy pickled slaw.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 pieces boneless, skinless chicken thighs
  • 1 cup buttermilk
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • Oil for frying
  • 4 pieces sandwich buns
  • 1 cup shredded cabbage
  • 1/2 cup shredded carrots
  • 1/4 cup vinegar (white or apple cider)
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • Salt, to taste

Instructions

  1. Marinate the chicken by placing the thighs in a bowl and covering them with buttermilk. Ensure they are submerged for at least 1 hour or overnight for more flavor.
  2. Prepare your flour mixture by combining the all-purpose flour, paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper in a separate bowl.
  3. Heat the oil in a skillet over medium-high heat until it’s hot enough to sizzle when a drop of water is added.
  4. Coat the chicken by allowing the excess buttermilk to drip off and dredging each thigh in the flour mixture.
  5. Fry the chicken in the hot oil for about 5 to 7 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through.
  6. Drain the cooked chicken on paper towels and let it rest for a few minutes.
  7. Make the slaw by combining shredded cabbage and carrots in a bowl. Whisk vinegar, sugar, and a pinch of salt together, then pour over the vegetables, tossing to combine.
  8. Assemble the sandwich by toasting the buns, placing crispy chicken on the bottom half, topping with pickled slaw, and finishing with the top bun.

Notes

For extra crispy chicken, double-dip in buttermilk and flour. You can also bake the chicken at 400°F for a healthier option.
