Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 large boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 cup buttermilk
  • 2 tablespoons dill pickle juice
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup cornstarch
  • 1 tablespoon dried dill weed
  • 1 cup mayonnaise
  • 4 brioche buns
  • Shredded lettuce
  • Dill pickle chips

Instructions

  1. Marinate the chicken: In a bowl, whisk together buttermilk, pickle juice, egg, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Submerge chicken breasts in the mixture and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight.
  2. Prepare the coating: In a shallow dish, combine flour, cornstarch, dried dill weed, baking powder, salt, and black pepper.
  3. Heat the oil: Pour vegetable oil into a deep pot to a depth of about 3 inches and heat to 350°F (175°C).
  4. Coat the chicken: Remove marinated chicken from the fridge. Shake off excess marinade and coat in the flour mixture.
  5. Fry the chicken: Carefully place coated chicken into hot oil and fry for about 6-8 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through (internal temperature should reach 165°F/74°C). Drain on a wire rack lined with paper towels.
  6. Make the dill aioli: In a bowl, mix mayonnaise with chopped fresh dill, lemon juice, minced garlic, Dijon mustard, salt, and pepper.
  7. Toast brioche buns: Brush cut sides of buns with melted butter and toast in a skillet until golden.
  8. Assemble the sandwich: Spread aioli on both bun halves. Add shredded lettuce followed by fried chicken breast and top with dill pickle chips.
