NASHVILLE FRIED CHICKEN SANDWICH RECIPE RECIPES

Steps:

• Coleslaw: Whisk together mayonnaise, Dijon, and vinegar. Pour over cabbage and toss to combine. Season with salt and pepper. Coleslaw will keep in the refrigerator, covered, up to 3 days.
• Hot Chicken Sauce: Stir together Frank's RedHot sauce, melted unsalted butter, hot paprika, and brown sugar.
• Sandwich: Remove oyster from chicken thigh and set aside. Working one at a time, pound each thigh between two pieces of plastic to an even 1/8-inch thickness. Let sit, covered with plastic, at room temperature while preparing remaining ingredients, at least 30 minutes and up to 1 hour.
• Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Fill a medium heavy pot, preferably cast-iron, about halfway with oil. Heat oil over medium-high to 375 degrees. Meanwhile, whisk together buttermilk and Old Bay or hot sauce in a medium bowl; season with salt and pepper. In a shallow dish, season 1 cup flour with salt and pepper; whisk to combine. In a separate shallow dish, season remaining 1 1/2 cups flour with baking soda, salt, and pepper and whisk to combine. Add 1/3 cup buttermilk mixture and stir together to create ragged clumps. Working with two pieces at a time, dredge chicken in plain flour mixture, then buttermilk mixture. Let excess drip off, then dip in clumpy flour mixture, pressing firmly to adhere and making sure chicken is completely coated. If wet spots are visible, press in more coating.
• Fry until golden brown and cooked through, adjusting heat as needed to keep oil between 360 and 380 degrees, about 3 minutes. Drain on a rimmed baking sheet fitted with a wire rack. Repeat with remaining chicken. To serve, lightly butter both sides of roll and place in the oven to lightly toast. Brush chicken with hot chicken sauce, then place on white or Texas toast with pickles and coleslaw.

Steps:

• Combine paprika, cayenne, garlic powder, onion powder and salt in a small bowl. Transfer 2 tablespoons of the mixture to a large nonreactive bowl or large sealable plastic bag. Add buttermilk and stir (or shake) to combine. (Reserve the remaining spice mixture.) If using breasts, cut in half into equal portions. Add chicken to the buttermilk mixture and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour or up to 24 hours.
• Preheat oven to 375degrees F. Line a baking sheet with foil or parchment paper. Coat a wire rack with cooking spray and set it on the prepared baking sheet.
• Place crushed cornflakes in a large bowl. Shaking off any excess marinade, coat each piece of the chicken with cornflakes, pressing to help them stick. Place on the prepared rack. Coat the top and sides of the chicken with cooking spray.
• Bake the chicken until golden brown and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part registers 165degrees F, 45 minutes to 1 hour.
• Combine the reserved spice mixture with vinegar and brown sugar in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat to low, add butter and stir until melted. Remove from heat.
• Transfer the chicken to a platter and drizzle with about half of the sauce. Serve immediately, with the rest of the sauce on the side.
