Instructions

Steps

  1. Start by wrapping the chicken breast in plastic wrap and gently pound it to about 1/2 inch thickness using the flat side of a meat tenderizer.
  2. Cut the chicken into two equal pieces.
  3. Marinate the chicken in pickle juice for 30 minutes to 1 hour. For an extra kick, add a teaspoon of Tabasco sauce.
  4. In a bowl, whisk together egg and milk.
  5. In another bowl, mix together flour, icing sugar, paprika, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, celery salt, and cayenne pepper.
  6. Dip each piece of chicken into the egg mixture on both sides, then coat thoroughly with the flour mixture.
  7. Heat olive oil in a skillet to about 345-350°F (around 175-180°C), ensuring the oil is about 1/2 inch deep.
  8. Fry each chicken cutlet for 2 minutes on each side or until golden brown and fully cooked.
  9. Remove from the skillet and let drain on paper towels. Serve on toasted sesame seed burger buns with pickle slices on top.
