Ingredients

• 3 large boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 2 large eggs
• 2 cups seasoned breadcrumbs
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon onion powder
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• Salt and pepper, to taste
• 6 slices of cheddar cheese
• 3 burger buns
• Vegetable oil, for frying
• Optional: lettuce, tomato, pickles for toppings

How to Make Triple Crispy Chicken Sandwich

1. Start by preparing the chicken. Place each chicken breast between two pieces of plastic wrap and pound them to an even thickness, about ½ inch thick.
2. Set up a breading station. In one bowl, place the flour seasoned with salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika. In a second bowl, beat the eggs. In a third bowl, add the seasoned breadcrumbs.
3. Coat each chicken breast first in flour, shaking off excess, then dip it into the beaten eggs, and finally coat it in the breadcrumbs. Press the breadcrumbs onto the chicken to ensure a crispy coating.
4. Heat about 1 inch of vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C). Carefully add the breaded chicken breasts, cooking in batches if necessary. Fry for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through (internal temperature should reach 165°F or 75°C).
5. Once cooked, transfer the chicken to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil. While the chicken is still hot, place two slices of cheddar cheese on each piece to melt.
6. Toast the burger buns lightly on a skillet or in a toaster.
7. Assemble your sandwich: Place one crispy chicken patty on the bottom bun, followed by another patty, then the third. Top with any desired toppings, and place the top bun on.
8. Dig in and enjoy your mouth-watering Triple Crispy Chicken Sandwich!

Tips for the Best Results

• Make sure your oil is hot enough before adding the chicken to achieve a golden, crispy exterior.
• For extra flavor, marinate the chicken in buttermilk for a few hours before breading.
• Don’t overcrowd the pan when frying; this helps maintain the oil temperature for crispiness.

Easy Variations

• Swap out cheddar for pepper jack for a spicy kick.
• Add avocado slices or jalapeños for an extra layer of flavor.
• Experiment with different types of buns, such as brioche or pretzel buns.

What to Serve With It

• Crispy sweet potato fries
• Coleslaw for a crunchy side
• A fresh garden salad
• Onion rings for an extra treat

Store any leftover chicken patties in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, place the chicken in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 10 minutes, or until heated through. For best results, reheat the sandwich components separately.
