Crispy Fried Chicken Sandwiches with Sour Pickled Peppers
Transformed Recipe:
Step aside, steak, 'cause Chicken-Fryin' ain't just for tenderloins anymore. This Southern tradition takes thinly sliced, pounded chicken (or even pork) and shallow-fries 'em, giving you a crispy, golden delight without the deep-fry mess. This time around, we're tossing it onto a hoagie roll, smothering it in mayo, piling on iceberg lettuce, and topping it off with quick-pickled sweet peppers. Make the pickled peppers and a batch of macaroni salad in advance, and you'll be serving up a patio-friendly dinner in about 40 minutes, simple as that.
Strategize like a Boss:Remember, the pickled peppers demand a 1-day minimum soaking time. Any leftover peppers can be refrigerated for up to a month.
