Chicken Sandwiches

Chicken Marinade: 

1. In a large bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, mustard powder, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt and black pepper, to taste. Whisk until evenly combined. 
2. Add the chicken and toss to coat. You can move on to dredging and frying but for best results, cover the chicken with plastic wrap and marinate in the refrigerator overnight. Remove from the refrigerator at least one hour before frying to bring to room temperature. 

‍Fried Chicken: 

1. Fill a 7-8 quart (6.6-7.5L) heavy bottomed pot just over halfway with the oil. Heat to 350℉ (175℃). Line a baking sheet with a cooling rack and place that next to the hot oil.
2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, salt, onion powder, garlic powder, ginger powder and paprika.

3. Sprinkle a baking sheet with a light coating of the flour mixture. 
4. Add about 2 tablespoons of the buttermilk marinade to the dredge and mix to incorporate.
5. Remove the chicken, in batches, from the marinade, allowing the excess to drip off, and transfer into the bowl of the dredge. Press the chicken into the dredge and toss to ensure each piece is evenly coated with no bald spots. Shake off the excess dredge and then place onto the prepared baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining chicken. 
6. Fry the chicken, in batches to avoid overcrowding, for about 3-4 minutes, or until the chicken is crispy, golden brown and the internal temperature reaches 165℉ (74℃). 
7. Drain on the cooling rack-lined baking sheet and season immediately with salt.

‍Assembly:

1. Melt the butter in a large skillet or on a griddle over medium-low heat. Toast the buns, cut side down, until golden brown.
2. Spread mayonnaise on the bottom bun.
3. For each sandwich, add 1 piece of fried chicken to a bowl. Pour in enough of each of the prepared sauces or dry rub to evenly coat the chicken. 
4. Place the sauced or spiced chicken onto the mayo-dressed bottom bun.
5. For the Garlic Parmesan Chicken Sandwich, top the chicken with a generous grating of Parmesan cheese. 
6. Add 3 slices of pickles on top of the chicken.
7.  Crown your sandwich with your top bun.
8. Repeat building the sandwiches and serve immediately.
