It's almost impossible to improve crispy fried chicken. A sprinkling of ranch dressing mix in the coating makes it happen, though. The empty-in-seconds serving platter is proof. -Taste of Home Test Kitchen

RANCH CHICKEN FRIED SANDWICH



Ranch Chicken Fried Sandwich image

To prepare the chicken breasts you must first flatten them to 1/4 inch thickness. To do this, place chicken into plastic freezer bag and pound with a rolling pin or the flat side of a meat tenderizing hammer. This is very important so that the chicken may fully cook in the pan without burning the outside.

COPYCAT FRIED CHICKEN SANDWICH



Copycat Fried Chicken Sandwich image

I tried to make a copycat Popeyes® fried chicken sandwich and ended up with a hybrid between that and the one from Chick-fil-A®. So you get the best of both worlds and what's more, this DIY version never runs out, not even on Sundays.

Time 2h40m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 18

1 cup buttermilk
2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 dash hot sauce, or to taste
1 tablespoon dry ranch dressing mix (such as Hidden Valley Ranch®)
4 (5 ounce) skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
1 ⅓ cups all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons cornstarch
2 teaspoons kosher salt
½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 ½ teaspoons cayenne pepper
1 tablespoon dry ranch dressing mix (such as Hidden Valley Ranch®)
1 large egg, beaten
½ cup buttermilk
¼ cup milk
canola oil for frying
4 soft hamburger buns, toasted and buttered
6 tablespoons mayonnaise, or to taste
12 dill pickle slices, or to taste

Steps:

  • Whisk buttermilk, salt, hot sauce, and ranch dressing mix together in a large bowl. Cut diagonal slits into the thick ends of chicken breasts and toss into marinade until well coated. Transfer to the refrigerator to marinate for 2 to 4 hours.
  • Meanwhile, make the breading: Mix flour, cornstarch, salt, pepper, cayenne, and ranch dressing mix together in a shallow dish.
  • Make the wash: Whisk egg, buttermilk, and milk together in another bowl until combined.
  • Use a fork to pull chicken from marinade, letting any excess drip off. Dip into the breading to coat both sides; shake off any excess. Dip into egg wash mixture to saturate surface; return to breading to coat, shake off excess, and repeat once more. Let sit on a wire rack to dry, at least 15 minutes.
  • Heat oil in a deep-fryer to between 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) and 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
  • Fry chicken breasts in the hot oil until golden, crispy, and no longer pink in the centers, 4 to 5 minutes, flipping halfway through. Transfer to a plate topped with crinkled up aluminum foil to prevent bottoms from getting soggy.
  • Spread mayonnaise over hamburger bun halves. Stuff with pickles and chicken.
