Perfect for lunch or dinner, these sandwiches are sure to become a household favorite!

Ingredients:

  • 🍗 1 chicken breast (cut into strips)
  • 🌶️ 5 tablespoons hot sauce (Woos)
  • 🥛 1/3 cup buttermilk
  • 🌾 1 cup flour
  • 🌶️ 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 🧂 1 teaspoon salt
  • 🌑 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 🧅 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 🧄 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 🛢️ Frying oil
  • 🌶️ 3/4 cup hot sauce (Woos)
  • 🍯 1/4 cup honey
  • 🥬 Green leaf lettuce
  • 🫑 1 red bell pepper (sliced)
  • 🧅 1 red onion (sliced)
  • 🥣 Ranch dressing (optional)

Instructions:

  1. Marinate the Chicken:
    • In a bowl, combine the chicken strips, 5 tablespoons of hot sauce, buttermilk, and salt to taste.
    • Mix well, ensuring the chicken is thoroughly coated. Cover and let it marinate in the fridge for at least 1 hour.
  2. Prepare the Coating:
    • In a large resealable bag, combine the flour, cayenne pepper, salt, black pepper, onion powder, and garlic powder. Mix well to combine.
  3. Coat the Chicken:
    • After the chicken has marinated, remove it from the buttermilk mixture and let any excess liquid drain off.
    • Place the chicken into the bag with the flour mixture, seal it, and shake until each piece is well-coated.
  4. Fry the Chicken:
    • Heat frying oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
    • Carefully add the coated chicken strips to the hot oil, frying until golden brown and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes per side.
    • Once cooked, transfer to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.
  5. Prepare the Sauce:
    • In a small bowl, mix together 3/4 cup hot sauce and 1/4 cup honey until well-blended.
  6. Assemble the Sandwich:
    • Lay green leaf lettuce on the bottom of your sandwich roll.
    • Top with fried chicken strips, generously drizzling with the honey buffalo sauce.
    • Add slices of red bell pepper and red onion for extra crunch.
    • Spread ranch dressing over the top bun if desired, then place it on top to complete the sandwich.
