Crispy kebab chicken sandwich

This spicy kebab chicken sandwich is so delicious and juicy! I used kebab powder on this fried chicken breast and put it in between toasted bread along with onions, tomatoes and spicy kebab sauce. Consider this a spicy version of the classic fried chicken sandwich. The chicken breast is pounded flat for best results! This gigantic sandwich serves one actually but can make room for two!

The chicken breast should be pounded flatter to get an even surface. Then it is coated in whisked egg, followed by the seasoned flour. You can repeat this step for a bigger layer of coating around the chicken. This is called double dredging. I add cornstarch into the flour to make the coating extra crispy so you don’t have to double dredge it. The next best substitute after cornstarch is potato starch.

The fried chicken, the sauce and toppings come together really nicely! Once the chicken is fried, let it cool a bit, then toss it generously in kebab powder. The sauce is basically mayo mixed with salt, pepper, vinegar and kebab powder. This kebab chicken sandwich is crunchy, spicy and so juicy!

Another kebab recipe which is just as crunchy and spicy is my kebab octopus which was made in the airfryer.
