This recipe uses pickle juice for a flavorful and juicy crispy chicken sandwich, perfected with a secret marinade and layered with cheese, sauce, and toppings.
1: Combine pickle juice, half and half, hot sauce, garlic powder, and pepper for the marinade.
2: Let the chicken soak in the marinade for at least an hour, up to 8 hours.
3: Drain the chicken and add half and half to it to replace the egg wash.
4: Dip the chicken in half and half, then in seasoned flour, and repeat for a second coating.
5: Heat canola oil to 350°F over medium flame.
6: Cook the chicken until golden brown, about 15 minutes, flipping halfway through.
7: Let drain on paper towels and sprinkle with salt.
8: To assemble the burger, use a brioche bun, add sauce, the cooked chicken, cheddar cheese, sliced pickles, lettuce, and more sauce.
