Preparation

Slice each chicken breast through the middle to create four filets. Place filets in pickle juice and marinate for 30 minutes.

In a small bowl, beat egg with milk. In a shallow dish, combine flour, salt and spices. Heat oil to 350For medium high in a frying pan.

Dip each filet into egg/milk, then into flour mixture. Shake off excess and gently place in hot oil. Fry for three to four minutes each side. Remove from oil, ensure thickest part of chicken breast meat reads 165F (74C) on meat thermometer, place on paper towel to drain.

Assemble sandwiches on brioche buns with mayonnaise, cheese, bacon, tomato, lettuce, red onion, and sweet pickles, or your favourite toppings.
