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.

ITALIAN CHICKEN BURGERS



Italian Chicken Burgers image

Tasty chicken burgers. Great on the grill. Can be pan fried or even baked (for those winter nights when it's too cold to grill outside!)

Provided by C and Ds Mommy

Categories     < 30 Mins

Time 20m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 lb ground chicken (or turkey)
1 egg
1/4 cup parmesan cheese (the shaker kind)
1/2 teaspoon italian seasoning
1 -2 garlic clove, minced
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
1/4 teaspoon seasoning salt (optional)
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1/2 cup mozzarella cheese, finely grated

Steps:

  • Combine all ingredients until well blended.
  • Form into patties.
  • Grill or cook until juices no longer pink inside.
  • When I have these on a bun, I use pasta or pizza sauce as a condiment instead of the usual burger toppings.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, boneless, skinless chicken breasts. This will ensure that your burgers are juicy and flavorful.
  • Grind the chicken breasts yourself. This will give you more control over the texture of your burgers and help to prevent them from becoming dry.
  • Season the chicken breasts liberally. This will help to add flavor and keep them moist.
  • Form the chicken burgers into patties that are about 1/2-inch thick. This will help them to cook evenly.
  • Pan-fry the chicken burgers over medium heat. This will help to prevent them from sticking to the pan and will also help them to cook evenly.
  • Cook the chicken burgers for about 3-4 minutes per side, or until they are cooked through. You can check to see if they are done by inserting a meat thermometer into the center of the burger. The internal temperature should read 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Serve the chicken burgers immediately on buns with your favorite toppings.

Conclusion:

Pan-fried chicken burgers are a quick and easy meal that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. They are a great way to use up leftover chicken, and they can be customized to fit your own taste preferences. Whether you like them simple or loaded with toppings, pan-fried chicken burgers are sure to be a hit at your next party or cookout.
