- While the chicken is frying, warm the butter, sweet chili sauce, and sriracha in a small pan just until the butter is melted.

To Assemble
- Make the chili mayo topping, whisk the mayo, sweet chili sauce, and sriracha in a bowl. Toast the brioche buns in a tablespoon of butter. Top each bun with a chicken fillet, sandwich toppings of choice (lettuce, onion, tomato, pickle), and about a tablespoon of the mayo mixture. Serve immediately and enjoy!
Notes
- If you have leftover chicken patties, store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven or in an air fryer until warm and crispy.
