TO MARINATE CHICKEN: Pound chicken breasts in between

chicken breast in half crosswise to make 2 small pieces
of chicken about the same size as the bun (see video
below).

In a large bowl, buttermilk, paprika, garlic powder,
salt & black pepper. Add the chicken to the mix and
place in the fridge to marinate up to 24 hours or use
right away.

TO COOK CHICKEN: Heat oil in a large heavy-duty skillet
or pot on medium temperature or until the temperature
reaches 350┬║F/175┬║C.

In a medium shallow bowl, whisk the flour, cornstarch,
and spices. Drizzle 2-3 tablespoons of the buttermilk
batter into the flour mixture and mix it through with a
fork.

Working with 1 piece at a time, dredge chicken the flour
mixture and press flour on the top chicken to form a
thick crust. Transfer chicken to hot oil and fry for 3-5
minutes per side or until the outside is crispy and
golden and the internal temperature reaches 165F.

TO ASSEMBLE: Melt 1 tablespoon butter in a large
saucepan and toast buns face down until golden and
crisp. Whisk all the ingredients for the mayo in a small
bowl and spread a generous layer of mayo on each bun.
Top with pickles and chicken. Enjoy hot!
