homemade KFC-style chicken burger recipe that gives you crispy, juicy chicken with that signature flavor. Ingredients For the Chicken Marinade: 2 boneless chicken thighs or breasts 1 cup buttermilk 1 tsp salt 1/2 tsp black pepper 1/2 tsp garlic powder 1/2 tsp onion powder 1/2 tsp paprika For the Coating: 1 cup all-purpose flour 1/2 cup cornstarch (for extra crispiness) 1 tsp salt 1 tsp black pepper 1 tsp paprika 1/2 tsp cayenne pepper (optional for spice) 1/2 tsp garlic powder 1/2 tsp onion powder 1/2 tsp baking powder For Frying: Vegetable oil (for deep frying) For Assembling the Burger: 2 burger buns Mayonnaise Lettuce Pickles (optional) Cheese slice (optional) Instructions Marinate the Chicken: In a bowl, mix buttermilk, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika. Add the chicken and let it marinate for at least 2 hours (overnight is best for more flavor). Prepare the Coating: In a separate bowl, mix flour, cornstarch, salt, black pepper, paprika, cayenne, garlic powder, onion powder, and baking powder. Coat the Chicken: Take the marinated chicken and coat it well in the flour mixture, pressing it firmly so the coating sticks. For extra crunch, dip the coated chicken back in the buttermilk and then coat it again in the flour mixture (double-coating). Fry the Chicken: Heat oil to 350°F (175°C) in a deep pan. Fry the chicken for about 5-7 minutes per side until golden brown and crispy. Remove and let it drain on a wire rack or paper towels. Assemble the Burger: Toast the burger buns lightly. Spread mayonnaise on both halves. Add lettuce, the crispy fried chicken, pickles, and a cheese slice if using. Cover with the top bun and press lightly. Enjoy your homemade KFC-style chicken burger!
