Notes
How to Deep Fry | To deep fry, heat peanut oil in a pan or deep fryer. Drop-in your chicken breasts once battered, and fry up until the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 165 degrees. If you fry in a pan, make sure to flip the chicken for even frying. Make in Instant Pot Duo Crisp | Follow the exact same directions, except reach for your duo crisp lid, not the pressure cooker lid. Then halfway through cooking, remove the lid and flip the chicken. Make in Ninja Foodi | The Ninja Foodi is a great device as well. Use the crisping lid for this particular recipe as well. All directions will stay the same. Dill pickle juice is ideal for the brining. It will help lock in moisture for a juicy chicken sandwich. Leftover chicken sandwiches can be stored in the fridge for up to three days. Or you can freeze for up to three months. Serve with waffle fries, chips, coleslaw, etc.
