Chicken and Marinade

Marinate the Chicken

In a bowl, combine lemon juice, black pepper, salt, and garlic powder. Add the chicken breasts and coat evenly. Let marinate for at least 30 minutes.

Prepare the Breading

In a shallow dish, mix flour, egg, and milk to create a batter. Dip the marinated chicken breasts into the batter, ensuring they are fully coated.

Fry the Chicken

In a large skillet, heat vegetable oil over medium heat. Once hot, carefully place the battered chicken breasts in the skillet. Fry for 5-7 minutes on each side or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove and drain on paper towels.

Cole Slaw

Mix the Slaw

In a large bowl, combine shredded cabbage and carrots. In a separate small bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, sugar, and salt. Pour the dressing over the cabbage mixture and toss until well combined.

Habanero Onions

Prepare Habanero Onions

In a small bowl, combine thinly sliced red onions, habanero pepper, lime juice, and salt. Let sit for 10 minutes to marinate.

Assembly

Assemble the Sandwich

Spread mayonnaise on the sandwich buns. Place the fried chicken breast on the bottom bun, top with cole slaw, sliced tomato, and habanero onions. Finish with the top bun.

Serve with Fries
