Recipe Information
Crispy Chicken Sandwich
Cultural Context
The crispy chicken sandwich has its roots in Southern cuisine, where fried chicken is a beloved staple. This dish has gained immense popularity across the United States, often found in fast-food chains and diners. Today, it comes in various styles, including spicy versions and gourmet toppings, appealing to a wide range of tastes.
buttermilk
🥗Healthier: Greek yogurt
💰Cheaper: milk + vinegar
Greek yogurt adds creaminess with fewer calories.
flour
🥗Healthier: whole wheat flour
💰Cheaper: all-purpose flour
Whole wheat flour increases fiber content.
mayonnaise
🥗Healthier: avocado spread
💰Cheaper: yogurt
Avocado spread is healthier while maintaining creaminess.
Gather and measure out all spices: 1 teaspoon dried thyme, 1 teaspoon dried basil, 1 teaspoon dried oregano, 1 and 1/2 teaspoons celery salt, 1 teaspoon mustard powder, 2 tablespoons paprika, 1 tablespoon garlic powder, 1 teaspoon ground ginger, 1 tablespoon white pepper, 1 teaspoon kosher salt, 1 teaspoon ground black pepper.
Preheat the air fryer to 390°F for 35 minutes.
Set up three 8 in by 8 in baking dishes: in the first dish, add 1 cup of all-purpose flour and whisk in all the spices; in the second dish, add 2 eggs and whisk them well; in the third dish, add about 2 cups of crushed corn flakes.
Prepare the chicken thighs by cleaning off extra fat and wearing gloves to avoid mess.
Dunk each chicken thigh in the flour mixture, ensuring it's fully coated, then shake off excess flour.
Dunk the floured chicken in the egg mixture, flipping to coat completely.
Transfer the chicken to the corn flakes, pressing the crumbs onto the chicken to ensure a good coating. Repeat for all chicken pieces.
Once the air fryer is preheated, place the chicken on parchment paper in the air fryer and give them a light spray with avocado oil.
Cook the chicken for 25 minutes, flipping halfway through and spraying again with oil.
While the chicken cooks, prepare the kleslaw: in a bowl, combine 1/2 cup mayo, 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar, 1 teaspoon dijon mustard, a pinch of kosher salt, and 2 teaspoons honey. Stir in 2 cups of shredded kleslaw mix and set aside.
Make the spicy mayo by mixing 1/2 cup mayo with 1 tablespoon Sriracha and set aside.
Toast the buns by spreading butter on the cut sides and placing them butter-side down in a dry skillet over medium-high heat until browned.
Flip the chicken halfway through cooking, spray again, and return to the air fryer.
Once the chicken is done (check with a thermometer for safety), sprinkle with kosher salt before assembling the sandwich.
To assemble the sandwich, spread a generous amount of spicy mayo on the bottom bun, add pickles, place a piece of chicken, top with kleslaw, and add more spicy mayo on the top bun.
