Recipes:
Crispy Chicken Sandwich with Cheddar Cheese
Ingredients:
For the Chicken:
2 boneless chicken breasts, halved into 4 fillets
1 cup buttermilk
1 cup all-purpose flour
½ cup cornstarch
1 tsp paprika
1 tsp garlic powder
½ tsp cayenne pepper (optional)
Salt and pepper to taste
Vegetable oil for frying
For Assembly:
4 brioche buns, toasted
4 slices cheddar cheese
Lettuce leaves
Sliced red onion
Mayonnaise
Instructions:
Marinate the Chicken:
Place the chicken fillets in a bowl and cover with buttermilk. Let marinate for at least 30 minutes or up to 4 hours for extra tenderness.
Prepare the Coating:
In a shallow bowl, mix flour, cornstarch, paprika, garlic powder, cayenne pepper, salt, and pepper.
Coat the Chicken:
Remove the chicken from the buttermilk, letting excess drip off. Dredge each fillet in the flour mixture, pressing firmly to coat. Repeat for a double coating if desired.
Fry the Chicken:
Heat oil in a deep skillet or pot to 350°F (175°C). Fry the chicken in batches for 3-4 minutes per side, until golden brown and crispy. Drain on a paper towel-lined plate.
Melt the Cheese:
Place a slice of cheddar cheese on each hot chicken fillet to melt slightly.
Assemble the Sandwich:
Spread mayonnaise on the bottom bun. Layer with lettuce, red onion, the crispy chicken with melted cheddar, and the top bun.
Serve:
Serve immediately with your favorite sides like fries or a salad. Enjoy this indulgent, crispy delight!
