Ingredients
Scale
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 large eggs, beaten
- 1 ½ cups panko breadcrumbs
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Cooking oil for frying
- ¼ cup mayonnaise
- 2 tbsp sweet chili sauce
- 1 tbsp sriracha (adjust to spice preference)
- Hamburger buns or slider buns
- Optional toppings: lettuce, pickles, sliced onions
Instructions
- Preheat the oil in a deep frying pan to 350°F (175°C). Prepare chicken by tenderizing lightly if needed.
- Season chicken with salt and pepper. Set up breading station with three shallow bowls: one with flour, one with beaten eggs, and one with panko breadcrumbs.
- Coat each chicken breast in flour, then in egg, and finally in panko breadcrumbs, pressing lightly to adhere.
- Fry the chicken in hot oil until golden brown and cooked through, about 8-10 minutes. Drain on paper towels and let cool slightly.
- Mix mayonnaise, sweet chili sauce, and sriracha in a bowl until smooth. Adjust spice level to taste.
- Slice fried chicken into strips. Spread sauce on the bottom of each bun.
- Place chicken strips on buns, add optional toppings like lettuce, pickles, or sliced onions.
- Cover with top buns and serve immediately.
Notes
- Ensure the oil is at the correct temperature for crispy chicken.
- Adjust sriracha and chili sauce to control spiciness.
- Leftover cooked chicken can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
- For extra crunch, double-fry the chicken for a crispier texture.
