Provided by Rebekah Rose Hills

Time 2h50m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 14

3 (8 ounce) skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
⅔ cup buttermilk
1 tablespoon Buffalo sauce
1 ½ teaspoons garlic powder
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon poultry seasoning
¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
¼ cup canola oil, or as needed
6 roll (blank)s hamburger buns
2 tablespoons Buffalo sauce, or to taste
½ cup sliced pickles
6 slices tomato
6 leaves lettuce, or more to taste
3 tablespoons ranch dressing, or more to taste

Steps:

  • Slice each chicken breast horizontally into 2 thin fillets. Place 6 fillets in a resealable zip-top bag with buttermilk, 1 tablespoon Buffalo sauce, and garlic powder. Seal the bag and shake to blend ingredients and evenly coat the chicken. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Combine flour, poultry seasoning, and pepper in a shallow dish or pie plate. Blend with a fork or whisk.
  • Remove chicken from the marinade and shake off excess. Dip chicken in the breading mixture until well and evenly coated on both sides. Discard the remaining marinade.
  • Add enough oil to a large skillet so that it thickly coats the bottom and heat over medium-high heat until sizzling but not smoking. Place 2 chicken fillets in the skillet so they fit comfortably; do not overcrowd. Fry until crispy and golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Drain chicken on paper towels and repeat twice, adding more oil as necessary, to fry remaining chicken. Transfer chicken to a baking sheet.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, 8 to 10 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
  • Remove chicken from oven. Place a chicken fillet on the bottom half of a bun. Add Buffalo sauce to taste. Top with pickle slices, tomato, and lettuce. Spread ranch dressing on the inside of the top bun and place over the sandwich. Repeat to make remaining sandwiches.

Time 25m

Yield 4 sandwiches, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 17

4 hamburger buns
4 slices American cheese (optional)
4 tablespoons mayonnaise (quantity optional)
2 boneless skinless chicken breast halves, cut in half lengthwise and pounded slightly
6 tablespoons Frank's red hot sauce
1/4 cup margarine (NOT butter)
1 tablespoon white vinegar
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (or more, if you like it hot)
1/8 teaspoon garlic salt
1 dash black pepper
1/4 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
2 tablespoons Tabasco sauce
3/4 cup baking mix (Bisquick, Baking Mix Aka "bisquick" or your own recipe)
1/2 cup beer
1/2 egg, beaten
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
vegetable oil, for frying (heat about an inch in a large frying pan over medium heat)

Steps:

  • Combine all sauce ingredients in a pan and simmer until melted.
  • Set aside.
  • Prepare chicken breasts by trimming off all visible fat and pounding.
  • Mix batter ingredients until no lumps remain.
  • Heat oil in frying pan over medium heat, about 350°F.
  • Dredge chicken breasts in batter, letting any excess drain off.
  • Fry on one side until golden and done (depending on how thinly you pound them, this takes between 5 - 7 minutes per side).
  • Flip over, and continue to fry until done.
  • Dip chicken breasts on both sides in buffalo sauce and serve on buns that have a light coating of mayonnaise on both sides.
  • Top with cheese if desired.
  • We usually serve this with french fries, so while I'm preparing the fries, I place the chicken breasts on a baking rack over a cookie sheet and keep them warm in a 200F oven.

BUFFALO CHICKEN SANDWICHES



Buffalo Chicken Sandwiches image

Forget about the fast food fried chicken sandwich wars! We think our buffalo chicken sandwich beats them all. We fill it with fresh chicken, spicy buffalo sauce, a rich brioche bun and cool blue cheese dressing.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     main-dish

Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

4 large chicken cutlets (about 1 1/4 pounds total)
1 cup buttermilk
1/2 cup ranch dressing
1 1/2 ounces blue cheese, crumbled (about 1/3 cup)
1 cup self-rising flour
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1 cup Buffalo-style hot sauce
Vegetable oil, for frying
4 brioche buns, split
2 cups shredded coleslaw mix
1/2 English cucumber, thinly sliced
Potato chips, for serving

Steps:

  • Place the chicken in a shallow bowl. Cover with the buttermilk, turning to coat. Combine the ranch dressing and blue cheese in a small bowl and refrigerate. On a large plate, stir together the flour and 1/2 teaspoon each salt and pepper. Pour the Buffalo sauce into a shallow bowl. Line a large plate with a few layers of paper towels.
  • Add enough vegetable oil to a large skillet to come halfway up the sides. Heat over medium-high heat until a deep-fry thermometer registers 350˚ F. Working in batches, remove the chicken from the buttermilk, letting the excess drip off, then coat in the flour mixture and shake off any excess. Carefully add the chicken to the hot oil and fry until dark golden brown and cooked through, 4 to 5 minutes per side. Transfer the chicken to the paper towel-lined plate to drain.
  • As soon as the chicken is cool enough to handle, dip in the Buffalo sauce, coating it entirely. Place each chicken cutlet on a bun bottom and top with coleslaw and cucumber. Spread the bun tops with the blue cheese mixture and close the sandwiches. Serve with potato chips.

Categories     Lunch

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 20

2 cups buttermilk
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon black pepper
½ teaspoon cayenne pepper
8 boneless, skinless chicken thighs
1 ½ cups plain greek yogurt
3 tablespoons fresh dill, chopped
1 teaspoon garlic powder
2 tablespoons lemon juice
¼ cup grated parmesan cheese
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon salt
2 teaspoons black pepper
1 ½ teaspoons cayenne pepper
1 tablespoon garlic powder
peanut or vegetable oil, for frying
softened butter, for buns
8 brioche burger buns
1 head butter lettuce
2 tomatoes, sliced

Steps:

  • Make the buttermilk marinade: In a medium bowl, combine the buttermilk, salt, pepper, and cayenne. Toss in the chicken thighs in the marinade to coat. Marinate for at least 1 hour in the refrigerator, or overnight.
  • Make the dill dressing: In a small bowl, combine the yogurt, dill, garlic powder, lemon juice, and Parmesan cheese. Cover and let sit for at least 1 hour in the refrigerator to chill.
  • Make the seasoned flour: In a medium bowl, combine the flour, salt, pepper, cayenne, and garlic powder. Dip the marinated chicken in the flour mixture until the chicken is completely covered.
  • Heat the oil in a deep pot until it reaches 350˚F (180˚C). Do not fill more than halfway with oil. Carefully fry the chicken for 7 minutes, or until cooked through.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your sandwiches.

  • Use a flavorful sauce for your sandwiches. This could be a classic buffalo sauce, a creamy ranch sauce, or a spicy honey mustard sauce.
