Requirements#
- 3 chicken breast

- 1.5 cup buttermilk
- 1 tbsp Tapatío hot sauce
- some cooking oil
- 1.5 cup flour
- 0.5 tsp salt
- 1 tsp cajun seasoning

- some ranch dressing
- 6 tsp mayonnaise
- 1 medium bowl
- 1 medium bowl
- 1 paper towel
- 1 medium saucepan
Instructions#
Step 1#
Cut chicken breast into sizes that will fit on hamburger buns. Then slice chicken horizontally to make them thinner
Note
Slicing makes the chicken more tender than pounding
Note
Aim for 1/2 inch thickness
Step 2#
Mix the buttermilk and Tapatío hot sauce in a medium bowl. Add the chicken, cover, and refrigerate at least 10 hours (overnight).
Note
Replace Tapatío with Frank's for a sweeter outcome
Step 3#
When ready to cook cooking oil to 360 F. Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, mix flour, salt, and cajun seasoning together.
Note
Replace cajun seasoning with cayenne pepper or paprika for a sweeter outcome
Step 4#
Remove the chicken from the buttermilk mixture and let excess liquid fall off. Dip the chicken in the flour mixture, then back in the buttermilk, then back in the flour.
Step 5#
Add the chicken to the heated oil and fry until cooked through and golden brown, about five minutes, flipping halfway through. Remove from the heat and set on a paper towel.
Step 6#
To make the buffalo sauce, use a medium saucepan. Melt the butter and stir in Frank's hot sauce.
Step 7#
Meanwhile, toast the buns in the toaster until the interior of the bun is golden and crispy. Set aside.
Note
Don't forget to set toaster to bagel mode
Step 8#
Smear both sides of the bun with some ranch dressing . Once the chicken has fried, toss it in the buffalo sauce and place it in the sandwich.
Note
Enough ranch fully cover the bun but not enough to pour off
Step 9#
Top with mayonnaise . Serve immediately.
Note
About 1tsp per sandwich, place mayo in tiny chunks since spreading is impossible due to buffalo sauce
