What Makes KFC's Famous Chicken Chicken Sandwich Special?

The secret to the mouth-watering KFC sandwich lies in its unique preparation. Each sandwich features 100% Canadian farm-raised chicken that is buttermilk marinated for tenderness and juiciness, hand-breaded with KFC's Extra Crispy seasoning for that perfect crunch, and then topped with sweet chunky pickles, creamy mayonnaise, all sandwiched between a soft, lightly toasted potato bun.

Step-by-Step Guide to Making Your KFC-Style Chicken Sandwich:

  • Ingredients:
        • Chicken breasts
        • Buttermilk
        • KFC's Extra Crispy seasoning (or your choice of crispy chicken breading)
        • Pickles
        • Mayonnaise
        • Potato buns
  • Marinating the Chicken:
        • Pound the chicken breasts to an even thickness for even cooking.
        • Soak the chicken in buttermilk overnight in the refrigerator to ensure it's tender.
  • Breading the Chicken:
        • Remove the chicken from the buttermilk and dredge in the Extra Crispy seasoning or your chosen breading mix. For best results, press the breading onto the chicken to make sure it's well-coated.
  • Frying the Chicken:
        • Heat oil in a deep fryer or a deep pan to 350°F (175°C).
        • Carefully place the chicken in the hot oil and fry until golden brown and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
  • Assembling the Sandwich:
      • Lightly toast the potato buns.
      • Spread mayonnaise on both sides of the buns.
      • Place the fried chicken on the bottom bun.
      • Add pickles on top of the chicken.
      • Cover with the top bun.
