Learn how to make delicious Dill Pickle Fried Chicken Sandwich. Easy recipe with step-by-step instructions.

  • Total Time: 45 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings

Ingredients

Creating this delicious sandwich is easier than you might think. Here’s a list of what you’ll need:

  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 cup dill pickle juice
  • 1 cup buttermilk
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional for heat)
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Vegetable oil for frying
  • 4 brioche buns
  • 1 cup sliced dill pickles
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 tablespoon honey

For a lighter option, you can substitute the buttermilk with Greek yogurt thinned with a bit of milk. If you prefer a spicier kick, increase the cayenne pepper or add a dash of hot sauce to your mayo mix. Flexibility is key in the kitchen!

Instructions

Let’s dive into the process of creating this flavorful sandwich. Follow these steps for a perfect result every time:

  1. Begin by marinating the chicken. In a bowl, combine the dill pickle juice and buttermilk. Add the chicken breasts, ensuring they are fully submerged. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or overnight for best results.
  2. When ready to cook, remove the chicken from the marinade and pat dry with paper towels.
  3. In a large bowl, mix the flour, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, cayenne pepper, salt, and pepper.
  4. Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. The oil should be about 350°F.
  5. Dredge each chicken breast in the seasoned flour, pressing gently to coat well.
  6. Fry the chicken in batches, avoiding overcrowding the pan. Cook for about 6-8 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
  7. While the chicken is frying, prepare your sauce by combining mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, and honey in a small bowl. Stir until smooth and set aside.
  8. Once the chicken is cooked, let it rest on a wire rack to maintain its crispy texture.
  9. Toast the brioche buns lightly in a separate pan or oven.
  10. Assemble the sandwich by spreading a layer of the mayo mixture on the bottom bun, adding the fried chicken, then topping with sliced dill pickles and the top bun.

And there you have it, a sandwich that’s both a taste and texture sensation!
