Directions For Nashville Hot Chicken Sliders Recipe
-
Pat dry chicken & trim excess fat (optional). Cut each chicken thigh in half.
-
Prep your dry batter by combining flour and salt in a large bowl, stir well.
-
Prep your wet batter by combining eggs, buttermilk, hot sauce and pickle juice, stir well.
-
In a small bowl whisk together your spices for the sauce.
-
Pre-heat oven to 200 to keep chicken warm as you work in batches.
-
Take each chicken piece into your dry flour batter, covering all parts, then into the wet batter then back into the dry, set aside on wire rack to await frying.
-
Add Chosen Foods 100% Pure Avocado Oil to a large skillet & wait for it to heat up to 350-375°F (option to use a wood skewer to test if the oil is ready by placing the tip into it, if it bubbles, oil is hot and ready).
-
Place chicken in carefully and cook about 6-7 minutes per side, until each side is browned – work in batches so that you don't overcrowd the skillet.
-
After all chicken has been fried, take 1 cup of hot avocado oil and carefully add it to the spices you have set aside.
-
Whisk the spices and avocado oil together quickly, the spices will want to sink so keep the whisk moving and then slowly pour this mixture over both sides of all of your fried chicken
-
Spread Chosen Foods Classic Mayo on the tops and bottoms of your slider rolls, top with fried chicken, pickles & slice into bite size sliders. Enjoy!
