Air Fryer Chick Fil A Sandwich

buttermilk

🥗Healthier: Greek yogurt

💰Cheaper: milk + vinegar

Greek yogurt reduces calories while maintaining creaminess

Trim the fat from 1 chicken breast and place it in a zipper bag.

Seal the bag, removing excess air, and pound the chicken to about 1/2 inch thick using a meat mallet or heavy bottomed pan.

Cut the chicken breast in half to make two sandwich patties and return them to the bag.

Add 1/4 cup dill pickle juice and some water to the bag, seal it, and shake to coat the chicken. Marinate in the fridge for 30 minutes.

Prepare the breading station: In a bowl, whisk together 1 egg and some milk.

In another shallow bowl, combine flour, cornstarch, paprika, salt, pepper, and garlic powder.

Dip the marinated chicken in the egg mixture, then coat it in the flour mixture, ensuring it is fully covered.

Preheat the air fryer and spray the basket with non-stick cooking spray.

Place the coated chicken patties in the air fryer basket, ensuring not to overcrowd them.

Cook the chicken for 6 minutes, then flip and increase the temperature, cooking for an additional 6 minutes.

Check the internal temperature of the chicken to ensure it reaches 165°F.

Assemble the sandwiches by placing pickles on the patties and adding chick-fil-a sauce on the top bun before closing the sandwich.
