FRIED CARAWAY CHICKEN SUBS WITH HONEY DRIZZLE AND SWEET BUTTER LETTUCE

There’s nothing simple about this bad boy. It’s a favorite in our household just because of all the different flavors that are in here.

It’s a party of sweet and savory and everyone’s invited! I’ve had this recipe for a while now, but forgot to put it on this new blog. That stops today! See below for this epic sandwich that you’ll find yourself making more than the standard chicken sandwich.

Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons Extra Virgin Olive Oil

  • 2 teaspoons Smoked Paprika

  • 1 teaspoons Cayenne Pepper

  • 1 teaspoons Kosher Salt

  • 4 flattened Chicken Breasts

  • 1 cups AP Flour

  • 1 tablespoons Smoked Paprika

  • 1 teaspoons Kosher Salt

  • 1 tablespoons fresh cracked Black Pepper

  • 1 tablespoons Cayenne Pepper

  • 1 cups plain Panko Bread Crumbs

  • 3 tablespoons Sesame Seeds

  • 3 tablespoons minced Dried Onion Flakes

  • 2 tablespoons dried Minced Garlic

  • 3 teaspoons Caraway Seeds

  • 1/2 cups shredded Sharp Cheddar Cheese

  • 1/2 thinly sliced Red Onion

  • 1 cups chopped Sweet Butter Lettuce

  • drizzles of Honey

  • 1 cups Caraway Sauerkraut

  • 1/2 cups thinly sliced Roma Tomato

  • 1 cups Alfafa Sprouts

  • 4 open-faced Poppyseed Buns

  • 2 Large Brown Eggs

  • 1 1/2 cups Canola Oil

Instructions

Set oven to broil.

In a small bowl, combine the olive oil, paprika, cayenne, salt, and black pepper. Rub the mixture all over the chicken.

In a wide shallow bowl, combine the flour, paprika, salt, black pepper and cayenne.

In a second bowl, beat the eggs to combine. In a third bowl, combine the bread crumbs, sesame seeds, onion flakes, dried garlic and caraway seeds.

With one cutlet at a time (make sure they are hammered pretty well to be larger than the bun), place each chicken cutlet into the flour to coat, shake off the excess, dipping both sides into the egg, shaking off any access, then press into the crumb mixture.

Transfer all breaded cutlets to a plate. Set oven to broiler. Position the rack 6 inches from heat source.

Fill cast iron with a shallow 1/4” layer of Canola Oil for shallow frying.

Fry on each side for 2-3 minutes.

Place each cutlet on open face bun on baking tray, with onion rings and cheese.

Broil for 4 minutes.

Remove and top with rest of remaining topping ingredients.

Lastly with the honey drizzle!
