Instructions
INSTRUCTIONS
For the Chicken:
- Wash and trim any fat or unwanted pieces off of each chicken breast. One chicken breast should be big enough for two sandwiches.
- Add chili powder, garlic powder, salt, white pepper, paprika and cumin to a medium bowl. Give it a quick whisk.
- Dip each chicken piece into the rub. Move it around so that the chicken is evenly covered.
- In a large bowl, pour buttermilk and add chicken to marinate.
- Cover the bowl with plastic and transfer to the refrigerator for about 2 hours or even overnight. This step will ensure that the chicken is super moist!
For the Batter:
- In a large bowl, combine flour, paprika, salt, garlic, ground pepper and cayenne pepper. Give it a whisk.
- Heat a pot of vegetable oil to 350F over medium high heat. Roll out a paper towel station.
- Coat each piece of chicken in the flour batter mixture.
- Add up to 4 pieces to the pot to fry.
- Cook for about 6 minutes.
- Transfer to the paper towels to cool.
For the Coleslaw:
- Chop up about ⅓ of the purple cabbage and ⅓ of the regular cabbage.
- In a medium large bowl, add sour cream, ranch, caraway seeds, salt, sugar, lemon zest from ½ a lemon, green onions and chives. Add lemon juice and a splash of white wine vinegar. Give it a whisk.
- Add in the cabbage slaw. Toss with tongs.
For the Assembly:
- In a small bowl, add honey mustard, honey and hot sauce. Whisk until combined.
- Chop the peppers into thin slices. Slice the avocados.
- Add coleslaw, chicken, spicy sauce, pepper and avocados to each brioche bun.
- Serve with a glass of Sutter Home Rose.
