4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
2 tablespoons cajun seasoning (or adjust to taste) or 2 tablespoons creole seasoning (or adjust to taste)
4 tablespoons butter, divided
1 medium onion, sliced
1 small red bell pepper, sliced
8 hamburger buns or 8 kaiser rolls, toasted is best

2 garlic cloves, minced
1 1/2 teaspoons chipotle peppers, in adobo (pureed)
1 teaspoon honey (optional)
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt

Steps:

  • To make chipotle mayonnaise, mix all mayonnaise ingredients together.
  • To assemble, spread chipotle mayonnaise mixture on both inner sides of the toasted buns then layer within the cooked chicken, sautéed onions and red bell peppers.

Time 45m

Yield 6 sandwiches

Number Of Ingredients 23

2 cups buttermilk, shaken
1 shallot, peeled, halved lengthwise and thinly sliced crosswise
2 garlic cloves, smashed
1 jalapeño pepper (with seeds), halved lengthwise
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
3 small skinless, boneless chicken breasts (6 ounces each)
3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
4 teaspoons baking powder
2 1/2 teaspoons smoked Spanish paprika
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 teaspoon celery salt
2 (48-ounce) bottles canola oil
6 potato hamburger buns, toasted, for serving
Buttermilk Herb Mayo, for serving (recipe follows)
6 Bibb lettuce leaves
Kosher dill pickles, such as Claussen, thinly sliced, for serving
1 cup good mayonnaise, such as Hellmann's
2 tablespoons buttermilk, shaken
1 teaspoon good white wine vinegar
2 tablespoons thinly sliced scallions, white and green parts
1 tablespoon minced fresh parsley
1 tablespoon minced fresh chives
1/8 teaspoon minced fresh thyme leaves Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, shallot, garlic, jalapeño, 2 teaspoons kosher salt and 1 teaspoon black pepper. Place the chicken breasts between 2 pieces of parchment paper and, with a rolling pin or a meat mallet, pound them until they are evenly 1/2 inch thick. Slice each piece of chicken in half crosswise so you have 2 pieces approximately the same size. Place the chicken in the marinade, making sure each piece is well coated, cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 8 hours or up to (but not more than) 24 hours.
  • When ready to cook the chicken, preheat the oven to 300˚. Set a wire rack on a sheet pan and place them in the oven.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, paprika, cayenne pepper, celery salt, 1 tablespoon kosher salt and 1 1/2 teaspoons black pepper and set aside.
  • Pour oil into a medium (9-inch round by 4 1/2-inch high) Dutch oven, such as Le Creuset, until it is 2 inches deep. Clip on a candy thermometer and heat the oil over high heat until it reaches 350˚. Meanwhile, lift the chicken from the marinade, dredge it in the flour mixture, submerge it again in the marinade, then again in the flour mixture, lightly shaking off the excess. Transfer the chicken to a plate or sheet pan until ready to fry.
  • When the oil is 350˚, carefully lower 3 pieces only into the oil with tongs and adjust the heat to keep the oil at 350˚. Don't crowd the chicken! Cook for 5 minutes, turning once to brown evenly. With a slotted spoon, transfer the chicken to the sheet pan in the oven to keep warm. Repeat with the remaining chicken. Sprinkle all the chicken with salt and keep warm for up to 15 minutes, until ready to serve.
  • To assemble, place the bottom of each bun on a plate, spread with some of the buttermilk herb mayo, then top with a lettuce leaf, 4 pickle slices, then a piece of chicken. Spread the underside of the top bun generously with more of the mayo and place on top of the chicken, mayo side down. Serve while the chicken is still warm.
  • Whisk together the mayonnaise, buttermilk, vinegar, scallions, parsley, chives, thyme, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a medium bowl. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use.

Yield 4 Servings

Number Of Ingredients 29

For the chicken:
1 cup buttermilk
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)
4 potato rolls (preferably Martin's)
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, room temperature
4 sandwich slice dill pickles, cut in half crosswise
For the buttermilk slaw:
1/4 cup buttermilk
1/4 cup mayonnaise
3 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/2 teaspoon honey
Kosher salt
1/4 small green cabbage, thinly sliced (about 2 cups)
1 medium carrot, peeled, coarsely grated
Special equipment:
A deep-fry thermometer

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.
  • Make the Buttermilk Slaw:
  • Whisk buttermilk, mayonnaise, vinegar, pepper, honey, and 1 tsp. salt in a medium bowl. Add cabbage and carrot and toss to combine.
  • Fry the chicken:
  • Pour oil into a heavy-duty pot to a depth of 3/4" and fit pot with deep-fry thermometer. Heat oil over medium-high until thermometer registers 350°F. 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.
  • Spread one side of bun with herbed mayonnaise. Build each sandwich with chicken, pickles, 1/4 cup slaw, and remaining bun. Serve remaining slaw alongside.

Tips:

  • To ensure a crispy coating, double coat the chicken in flour and egg wash. This creates a barrier that prevents the juices from seeping out during frying.
  • Use a neutral oil with a high smoke point, such as vegetable or canola oil, for frying. This will prevent the oil from burning and imparting an unwanted flavor to the chicken.
  • Maintain a consistent oil temperature between 350°F and 375°F. Use a kitchen thermometer to monitor the temperature and adjust the heat accordingly.
  • Do not overcrowd the pan when frying the chicken. This will cause the oil temperature to drop and result in soggy chicken.
  • Fry the chicken in batches and drain it on a wire rack lined with paper towels to remove excess oil.
  • Make sure the chicken is fully cooked before assembling the sandwiches. The internal temperature should reach 165°F.
  • Use a soft, fluffy bun for the sandwiches. This will provide a good contrast to the crispy chicken.
  • Add your favorite toppings to the sandwiches, such as lettuce, tomato, onion, and pickles. You can also add a drizzle of your favorite sauce, such as ketchup, mustard, or mayonnaise.

Conclusion:

These fried chicken sandwiches with chipotle mayo are a delicious and satisfying meal. They are perfect for a quick lunch or dinner. With a few simple tips, you can make sure that your fried chicken sandwiches are crispy, juicy, and flavorful. So next time you are craving a fried chicken sandwich, give this recipe a try.
