Directions
Prep Time: 15 minutes | Cook Time: 30 minutes | Total Time: 45 minutes
- For Slaw: Mix together mayonnaise, white vinegar, sugar, and salt until combined. Add coleslaw and toss to coat. Cover and set in the fridge.
- For Spicy Mayo: Whisk together all ingredients in a bowl.
- For Chicken: combine dry ingredients for chicken in a shallow bowl. In a separate shallow bowl, combine wet ingredients for chicken.
- Using one hand for wet things, and one for dry, work with 1 piece of chicken at a time. Add chicken to flour and press to coat.
- Shake off excess and dip into buttermilk mixture, allowing the excess to drip back into the bowl.
- Add chicken back to the flour mixture and press to coat then shake off excess. Place chicken on a baking sheet with a rack. Do not pile on top of each other.
- For Frying: fill a cast iron pan or pot halfway with neutral oil. Heat oil to 350F or until a droplet of water sizzles across the surface.
- Using tongs, drop chicken away from you to prevent oil splattering. Fry on one side for 5 minutes, flip and fry for an additional 3 minutes on the other side or until golden brown with an internal temperature of 165F.
- Using the tongs, remove chicken out of the oil and place on a sheet tray with a rack on top to cool slightly. Repeat with remaining chicken pieces.
- For Assembly: top bottom toasted slice with slaw, then chicken, pickle slices, spicy mayo and the top toasted slice. Enjoy!
