INGREDIENTS<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Spicy mayo and slaw:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

1 garlic clove, finely grated<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1\/2 cup mayo<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1 tablespoon Louisiana-style hot pepper sauce<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1\/2 small red onion, thinly sliced<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1 jalape\u00f1o, thinly sliced<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4 cups thinly sliced cabbage<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1\/2 cup bread-and-butter pickle slices, plus 1\/4 cup pickle juice<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fried chicken:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

2 cups all-purpose flour<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1 tablespoon ground black pepper<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1\/2 teaspoon kosher salt plus more<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1 cup buttermilk<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2 8-ounces skinless, boneless chicken breasts, halved crosswise<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Peanut or vegetable oil<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4 white sandwich rolls<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2 tablespoons butter<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Spicy Mayo and Slaw<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mix garlic, mayonnaise, and hot pepper sauce in a small bowl; cover and chill. Toss onion, jalape\u00f1o, cabbage, pickles, and pickle juice in a large bowl to combine; cover and chill. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fried Chicken Sandwich<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Whisk flour, pepper, and 1\/2 teaspoon salt in a shallow bowl. Pour buttermilk into another shallow bowl. Working with 1 piece at a time, dredge chicken in flour mixture, shaking off excess. Dip in buttermilk, allowing excess to drip back into bowl. Dredge again in flour mixture, shaking off excess.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pour oil into a large heavy skillet to a depth of 1\/2\u2033. Prop deepfry thermometer in oil so bulb is submerged. Heat over medium heat until thermometer registers 350\u00b0F.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fry chicken until golden brown and cooked through, about 3 minutes per side. Transfer to a wire rack set inside a baking sheet; season with salt. Spread cut sides of rolls with butter. Heat another large skillet over medium heat. Working in batches, cook rolls buttered side down until browned and crisp, about 1 minute.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Spread with spicy mayo. Build sandwiches with rolls, chicken, and cabbage slaw.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
