Directions

45 min.
1. Step

Place the chicken breasts in a large bowl and cover with buttermilk. Chill for at least 30 minutes.

2. Step

In a large bowl, combine flour, paprika, onion powder, cayenne, salt, and pepper.

3. Step

Remove chicken from the buttermilk, allowing excess to drip off. Dredge each piece thoroughly in the flour mixture.

4. Step

Heat the vegetable oil in a large frying pan over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the chicken pieces and cook for about 4-6 minutes on each side, until golden brown and cooked through. Allow the chicken to rest on a paper towel to drain any extra oil.

5. Step

In a small bowl, mix together mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, honey, and paprika to make the sauce.

6. Step

To assemble the burgers, spread the sauce on the bottom halves of the brioche buns. Top with lettuce, fried chicken, pickles, and then the top bun. Serve immediately and enjoy!
