Crispy Fried Chicken Burger

Ok this does not look like it did on the original recipe! Tastes good though. Next time would flatten my chicken by about half again as I had to fry for too long to cook through.

Ingredients

Chicken choices

• 2 x 250g chicken breast 

• 4 boneless thigh fillets

Marinade

• 3/4 cup buttermilk 

• 1 1/2 tsp salt

• 1 large egg

Crunchy coating

• 3/4 cup plain flour

• 1/4 cup corn flour
  

Fried chicken seasoning

• 1/4 tsp celery salt

• 1/2 tsp sweet paprika

• 1/8 tsp cayenne pepper 

• 1/2 tsp onion powder

• 1 tsp garlic powder

• 1/4 tsp mustard powder

• 1/4 tsp ground ginger

• 1/2 tsp dried thyme

• 1/2 tsp dried oregano

• 1.5 tsp black pepper

• 1/2 tsp salt

Instructions

1. Cover the chicken with a freezer bag and pound to 1cm thickness.

2. Trim to just a touch larger than the size of your bun.

3. Whisk Marinade ingredients in a bowl.

4. Add chicken, toss, then marinate in the fridge for 3 hours minimum, to overnight.

5. Mix flour, cornflour and seasoning ingredients in a bowl.

6. Drizzle over 2 tbsp of the marinade, then use your fingers to mix through to form lumps.

7. Heat oil in a large pan over medium high heat.

8. Pick up a piece of chicken and allow excess marinade to drip off.

9. Press to coat in flour coating, shake off excess, then fry for 2 minutes on each side until golden. DO NOT TOUCH for the first 90 seconds to allow the coating to adhere.

10. Drain on paper towels, cook remaining chicken.

11. Assemble
