FRIED CHICKEN SANDWICH WITH SPICY MAYONNAISE



Fried Chicken Sandwich With Spicy Mayonnaise image

"Fried," "Chicken" and "Sandwich": three alluring enough words on their own; together, they promise pure, unbridled pleasure.

Categories     HarperCollins     Sandwich     Fry     Chicken     Spring     Fall     Summer     Winter     Dairy     Tree Nut Free     Lunch     Dinner

Yield 1

Number Of Ingredients 16

5 tablespoons kefir, buttermilk or plain yogurt
½ teaspoon hot smoked paprika, plus ¼ teaspoon for flour, below
1 teaspoon lemon juice
½ teaspoon Dijon mustard
½ teaspoon maple syrup
1 fat clove of garlic
1 small skinless, boneless chicken thigh
4-5 tablespoons all-purpose flour
Sunflower oil for frying, approx. 6 cups for a 9-inch saucepan, more for a wok
For assembling
¼ cup garlic mayonnaise
1 teaspoon Chili Crisp oil or other chili sauce
¼ teaspoon honey
1 burger bun or 2 slices of white bread
A few leaves of iceberg lettuce, shredded
Kimchi or pickles of your choice

Steps:

  • Pour the kefir, or buttermilk, or yogurt into a small dish and stir in the ½ teaspoon of hot smoked paprika, ½ teaspoon of salt, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, and maple syrup. Peel the garlic and mince or grate it in, too. Give a good stir, then add the chicken thigh and turn it in the marinade to make sure it's well coated. Cover the dish, then leave for at least 4 hours or up to 2 days in the fridge. (If you simply cannot wait that long, leave the chicken in its marinade out on the kitchen countertop for 20-40 minutes.)
  • Take the chicken, in its marinade, out of the fridge in good time to get to room temperature before you start to cook it.
  • Mix the flour with the remaining ¼ teaspoon each of hot smoked paprika and salt in a shallow dish. Lift the chicken out of the marinade, but don't try and shake it off. Dredge both sides of the chicken in the seasoned flour, then dip briefly back into the marinade and dredge again. This double-dredging is essential to get a thick, shaggy coating. You can leave the coated chicken in the flour dish until you fry.
  • Mix the garlic mayonnaise with the Chili Crisp oil and honey, and spread both pieces of a split burger bun (or a couple of slices of bread) with it. Put a plate lined with paper towels by (but not dangerously near) the stove, if you want to get rid of any excess fat once the chicken's cooked.
  • Pour enough oil into your chosen pan to come about 1½ inches up the sides. Heat until a small piece of bread becomes golden and crisp almost instantly; if you want to be precise, and have a food thermometer, then you want the fat to be at 375ºF when the chicken goes in (and about 350ºF as it cooks).
  • Using tongs, gently lower the chicken thigh into the hot oil, and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side, by which time the coating should be deep gold and very crisp and the chicken completely cooked through. Remove to the waiting paper-lined plate, remembering to take the pan of oil off the heat, and leave to stand for a couple of minutes while you shred some iceberg lettuce and get out your pickles. Put a handful of shredded lettuce on top of the mayo on the bottom slice, top with the fried chicken, add kimchi, pink-pickled onions and any other pickles you want. Scatter with a bit more lettuce and squidge on the top of the bun or second slice of bread. Go in cautiously: I have more than once burned my mouth.

Categories     main-dish

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.

Time 1h35m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 14

½ teaspoon celery salt
½ teaspoon dried basil
2 large eggs
milk
2 tablespoons butter, softened
6 sandwich buns

Steps:

  • Place each chicken breast between 2 sheets of heavy plastic on a solid, level surface. Firmly pound chicken with the smooth side of a meat mallet to an even thickness. Cut each breast in half and place in a bowl. Pour pickle brine on top and let sit for 1 hour.
  • Meanwhile, mix flour, powdered sugar, salt, paprika, pepper, celery salt, and basil in a bowl.

  • Let chicken rest on a cooling rack set over a baking sheet for 5 minutes. While chicken is resting, lightly butter each sandwich bun and toast them in a skillet.
  • Add 2 pickle slices to the bottom of each bun, then a chicken piece, then top with the other bun. Repeat to make remaining sandwiches.
