Marinate chicken breasts in buttermilk for at least 1 hour or overnight.

In a bowl, combine flour, cornstarch, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, salt, and baking powder.

Remove chicken from buttermilk, allowing excess to drip off, and dredge in the flour mixture until fully coated.

Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.

Fry chicken in batches, cooking for 6-8 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through.

Transfer fried chicken to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.

Toast burger buns in the same skillet until golden brown, about 1-2 minutes.

Spread mayonnaise on the bottom half of each bun.

Layer with leafy lettuce, tomato slices, pickles, and a piece of fried chicken.

Top with the other half of the bun and serve immediately.
