Ingredients (12)

For safe meat preparation, reference the USDA website.

Steps (5)

  1. 1

    Arrange a breading station. Mix the flour and one teaspoon of the seasoning mix on a plate; whisk the eggs with salt and pepper in a shallow bowl and mix the panko crumbs with the remaining seasoning mix on a third plate or shallow bowl.

  2. 2

    Dredge each piece of chicken in the flour and shake off excess; dip into the egg and shake off excess and press into the breadcrumbs, coating on both sides.

  3. 3

    Heat enough oil in a large skillet to come up about ⅛–¼-inch of the sides of the pan until very hot but not smoking. Add the chicken and cook for about 6–8 minutes total, flipping once halfway through, until the chicken is cooked through and the exterior is golden and crispy. Place on paper towels to drain.

  4. 4

    To build the sandwiches, place the hot chicken on the bottom of four rolls. Spread dressing on the tops, if using. Layer chicken, pickles, lettuce and coleslaw inside and close the sandwiches. Serve immediately.

  5. 5

    For a spicier option, swap Original Ranch with the Nashville Hot Ranch dressing.

Rated 2 out of 5 by from Zero spice whatsoever I followed the recipe to a ‘T’ and there was zero spicy. Zero. Still a good chicken sandwich but that has more to do with the cook than the recipe.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Whole lot to love hot chicken sandwich Making this sandwich and stacking the layers it feels like it came from a mid-level restaurant. The Cole slaw is brilliant. The HVR adds a tang to the taste.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Delicious Sandwich I made these last week and they are tasty and refreshing on a hot day. That said, "Nashville Hot" really isn't an apt name for this recipe, there really isn't any heat to them, just a little spice.
