Honey Sriracha Fried Chicken Sandwich
60 mins prepServes 6
A mouthwatering sandwich featuring fried chicken thighs marinated in buttermilk and seasoned to perfection, paired with a spicy honey Sriracha glaze and served on brioche buns with fresh toppings.
1: In a bowl, marinade the chicken thighs with buttermilk, salt, pepper, paprika, Cajun seasoning, garlic powder, and onion powder. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour or overnight.
2: In a wide bowl, mix the dry batter ingredients (flour, cornstarch, salt, pepper, paprika, onion powder, and garlic powder). Set aside.
3: For the wet batter, use the remaining spiced buttermilk from the chicken.
4: Coat the marinated chicken in the dry batter, then the wet batter, and finally in the dry batter again.
5: Heat oil in a pan and shallow fry the chicken in batches for 8-10 minutes, flipping sides until golden brown and cooked through.
6: Make the chicken glaze by mixing Sriracha, honey, chives, and mayonnaise in a bowl. Coat the fried chicken with the glaze.
7: Make the spicy sauce by combining mayonnaise, Sriracha, chopped red onion, jalapeno (if using), salt, garlic powder, onion powder, and parsley in a bowl.
8: Assemble the sandwiches with fried chicken, lettuce, onion, tomatoes, pickle cucumber, and spicy sauce on brioche buns.
