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 5 out of 5 by from Delishious I made these for dinner but I added some powdered Frank's red hot sauce ( it's a powder but liquid would work in with the eggs) we like extra spicy food it was a hit we will be adding this to our dinner rotation!!

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Very good for the whole family I prefer it a little hotter than this usually, but the ranch flavor with the spice makes it better and more rich and flavorful. This is a great dish to surprise the family with or friends or anyone who doesn’t have a low spice tolerance. I would check first because it does have kick to it.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Little work, but worth it This is pretty tasty, it is a little more work than I like, but it is good and something different. You can easily tweak the heat, either more or less to your taste.
