  • Salt to taste

Coleslaw

  • 1 cup Shredded cabbage mix
  • 2 TBSP Mayonnaise
  • 1/2 TBSP Apple cider vinegar
  • 1/2 TBSP Honey
  • Salt to taste
  • Black pepper to taste

Hot Chicken Sandwich

  • 8 oz Chicken breast boneless skinless butterflied
  • 2 cups Buttermilk
  • 1 cup All-purpose flour
  • 1 TBSP Paprika
  • 1 TBSP Cayenne pepper
  • 1 tsp Garlic powder
  • 1 tsp Onion powder
  • Salt to taste
  • Black pepper to taste
  • 2 cups Vegetable oil for frying
  • 4 Hamburger buns
  • Pickle chips for serving

Homemade Lemonade

  • 1 cup Lemon juice fresh squeezed
  • 16 oz Water
  • 2 TBSP Sugar use to taste
  • Ice cubes

Instructions

  • Prep the ingredients per the instructions above.
  • Prepare the Air Fryer French Fries: Place the cut potatoes in a bowl of cold water for 20 minutes. Pat dry and drizzle with olive oil.
  • Preheat the air fryer to 400°F (200°C).
  • Toss to coat the fries evenly with the oil. Transfer the fries to the air fryer basket in a single layer, making sure they are not overcrowded. Cook the fries in the air fryer for about 15-20 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through, until they are golden and crispy. Remove the fries from the air fryer and season with salt to taste.
  • Prepare the Coleslaw: In a bowl, mix shredded cabbage, mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, honey, salt, and black pepper. Refrigerate until ready to use.
  • Marinate the Chicken: In a bowl, soak the chicken breasts in buttermilk for at least 15 minutes.
  • Prepare the Coating: In a separate bowl, combine flour, paprika, cayenne pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper.
  • Coat the Chicken: Remove the chicken from the buttermilk, letting excess drip off. Dredge the chicken in the flour mixture, ensuring an even coating.
  • Heat the Oil: In a large skillet, heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).
  • Fry the Chicken: Carefully place the coated chicken breasts in the hot oil. Fry for about 6-8 minutes per side or until golden brown and cooked to an internal temperature of 160°F (71°C).
  • Prepare the Buns: While the chicken is frying, lightly toast the hamburger buns.
  • Assemble the Sandwich: Place the fried chicken on the bottom half of each bun. Top with pickles and coleslaw.
  • Mix the ingredients for the lemonade.
  • Serve: Cap off with the remaining bun halves. Serve immediately with french fries and lemonade.
