1 tablespoon hot sauce (preferably Tabasco)
Kosher salt
4 skinless, boneless chicken cutlets (about 1 pound)
1/4 cup mayonnaise
2 tablespoons mixed chopped fresh herbs (such as basil, chives, and/or tarragon)
1/2 cup cornstarch
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons paprika
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
3 large eggs
Canola oil (for frying)

For the buttermilk slaw:

Kosher salt
1/4 small green cabbage, thinly sliced (about 2 cups)

Special equipment:

Steps:

  • Prep the chicken:
  • Combine buttermilk, hot sauce, and 2 tsp. salt in a large, shallow bowl. Add chicken, cover, and chill 2 hours.
  • Meanwhile, combine mayonnaise and herbs in a small bowl; cover and chill until ready to use.
  • Place cornstarch in a shallow baking dish. Combine flour, paprika, cayenne, garlic powder, black pepper, and 1 1/2 tsp. salt in another shallow baking dish. Lightly beat eggs in a shallow bowl. Remove chicken from buttermilk mixture and dredge in cornstarch, shaking off excess. Dip in egg mixture, letting excess drip back into bowl, then coat in flour mixture, shaking off excess. Repeat for a second coating. Place chicken on a lightly floured sheet tray; chill at least 15 minutes or up to 1 hour.

Reduce heat to medium, then fry chicken pieces, two at a time and turning occasionally, until crispy and golden and the internal temperature registers 165°F on an instant-read thermometer, about 3 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack set inside a rimmed baking sheet; season with salt.
  • Assemble the sandwiches:
  • Spread rolls on cut sides with butter. Heat a large skillet over medium. Working in batches, cook rolls, buttered side down, until browned and crisp, about 1 minute.

Time 55m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 21

3 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
2 teaspoons granulated sugar
1/2 teaspoon celery salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup mayonnaise
2 scallions, thinly sliced
1 cup finely shredded green cabbage
1 cup finely shredded red cabbage
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1 tablespoon hot sauce, plus more to taste (up to 3 tablespoons total)
1/2 cup plain yogurt
1 1/2 teaspoons smoked paprika
2 cloves garlic, grated
Kosher salt
4 boneless, skinless thin-cut chicken cutlets, each about 1/4-inch thick
Vegetable or canola oil, for frying
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
4 brioche burger buns, split
2 vine-ripened or heirloom tomatoes, thinly sliced

Steps:

  • For the tangy slaw: Whisk together the vinegar, sugar, celery salt and pepper in a small bowl until combined. Stir in the mayo until incorporated. Add the scallions and green and red cabbage and toss to coat. Set aside, or refrigerate for up to 4 hours in advance.
  • For the spicy mayo: Whisk together the mayonnaise and hot sauce in a small bowl. Taste and add more hot sauce depending on how spicy you like it. Refrigerate in an airtight container for up to a week.
  • For the fried chicken: Mix the yogurt, 1 teaspoon of the paprika, garlic and 1/2 teaspoon salt together in a large bowl. Add the chicken cutlets and coat evenly. Let the chicken sit in the marinade for about 15 minutes at room temperature or up to 2 hours refrigerated.
  • Once the chicken has marinated, pour about 2 inches of oil in a deep 10-inch cast-iron skillet and place over medium-high until it registers 350 degrees F on a deep-fry thermometer. Line a sheet pan with paper towels.
  • While the oil heats, whisk together the flour, onion powder, remaining 1/2 teaspoon paprika, 1/2 teaspoon salt and the black pepper in a small shallow dish. Remove the cutlets from the yogurt, allowing any excess yogurt to drip off, and dredge the cutlets in the flour mixture.
  • Carefully add the dredged chicken to the hot oil and fry until the chicken is deeply golden brown on both sides and cooked through, 7 to 8 minutes, flipping the cutlet about halfway through the cooking time. Drain on the paper towels and immediately sprinkle the chicken with more salt to taste.
  • Toast the burger buns until golden brown. Spread 1 tablespoon of the mayo over the top and bottom of each bun. Place a piece of fried chicken on each bottom bun, top that with slices of tomato and some slaw and cover with the top buns. Serve immediately.

Tips:

  • For the crispiest chicken, use a combination of all-purpose flour and cornstarch in your breading.
  • Be sure to season your chicken liberally with salt and pepper before dredging it in the flour mixture.
  • Use a well-seasoned cast iron skillet for frying the chicken. This will help to create a golden brown crust.
  • Don't overcrowd the skillet when frying the chicken. This will cause the chicken to steam instead of fry.
  • Use a meat thermometer to ensure that the chicken is cooked through to an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • For the coleslaw, use a combination of green and red cabbage for a colorful and flavorful slaw.
  • Be sure to drain the coleslaw well before adding it to the dressing. This will help to prevent the slaw from becoming watery.
  • For the spicy mayo, use a good quality mayonnaise and Sriracha sauce. You can adjust the amount of Sriracha to taste.
  • Serve the chicken sandwich on a toasted bun with the coleslaw and spicy mayo.
