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.
