As a stay at home parent, I know that finding the time and energy to make delicious meals for my family can be tricky. That’s why I love this easy fried chicken sandwich recipe. It’s quick to prepare, family friendly, and always a hit with the kids. Plus, it’s a great way to use up any leftover chicken you have in the fridge. Here’s how I make it:

First I prepare the chicken. Place the chicken breasts between two pieces of plastic wrap on a cutting board. Using a meat mallet or rolling pin, pound the chicken until it’s about 1/2 inch thick. This will ensure even cooking when you fry it. Next, mix together the flour, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt and pepper in a shallow bowl. In another shallow bowl beat together the eggs with the buttermilk. This will be your egg wash. Dip each piece of chicken into the egg wash and then coat with the flour mixture. Heat about 1/4 inch of vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat until shimmering. Fry the chicken for 3 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through. Drain on a paper towel lined plate. To assemble the sandwiches, place a piece of fried chicken on each bun and top with lettuce, tomato slices and pickles (if desired). Serve warm with your favorite sides and enjoy!

This fried chicken sandwich recipe is one of my go-to recipes on busy nights when I need to get dinner on the table quickly without sacrificing flavor or nutrition. Plus, my kids love it! It’s always a hit when I make it for them. And since it’s so simple to make, I can spend more time with them instead of slaving away in the kitchen all night long – which is really what matters most to me as a stay at home parent!
