Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Prepare the Cowboy Butter: In a mixing bowl, combine softened butter, chopped parsley, chives, lemon juice, garlic powder, smoked paprika, cayenne pepper, salt, and pepper. Mix until smooth, then set aside for flavors to meld.
  • Marinate the Chicken: Take your chicken breasts and soak them in buttermilk for at least 30 minutes, or even overnight.
  • Fry the Chicken: Remove the chicken from the buttermilk and coat it thoroughly in a seasoned flour mixture. Heat oil in a frying pan over medium heat and fry the chicken for about 4-6 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and fully cooked.
  • Assemble the Sandwich: Lightly toast your burger buns. Generously spread cowboy butter on both the top and bottom of each bun. Layer with the crispy fried chicken, followed by lettuce, sliced tomatoes, and pickles if using.
  • Serve and Enjoy: Serve your sandwiches warm and enjoy the delightful flavors!
