Instructions
- Combine all the buttermilk marinade ingredients in a large bowl then add the chicken breasts. Allow to marinade for at least 2 hours but up to 24 hours, refrigerated.
- When the chicken has marinated, combine all the ingredients for the flour dredge and mix well.
- Remove the chicken from the buttermilk marinade then dredge in the flour, making sure to get the flour packed onto the chicken.
- Heat oil in a deep pot. Shake off the excess flour then carefully add the chicken to the hot oil. Cook for 8-10 minutes until the chicken is golden brown and crisp and cooked through. Flip half-way through cooking to allow both sides to brown.
- Remove the chicken from the oil and allow to drain before assembling the sandwich.
- In the meanwhile, combine all the ingredients for the coleslaw in a bowl and mix well.
- Toast the brioche rolls then top with the chicken and coleslaw and serve.
