Chick-fil-a Sandwiches

I know it has been quite a while since I blogged last. I was very busy at work for a while then I joined Pinterest and started doing a million projects from that. Since I last posted I have made a lot of great meals and I cannot wait to share some of them with you. This first one was requested by a facebook friend of mine. These sandwiches are amazing! They taste almost the same as chickfila's and are not hard to make.

Ingredients:

4 hamburger buns or other bread (we recently used whole wheat sub sandwich bakery bread from HEB and it was so good for this recipe)
4 chicken breasts
Canola oil, peanut oil, or vegetable oil
1 egg
1 cp milk
2.5 Tblsp powdered sugar
.5 tsp pepper
2 tsp salt
Hamburger sliced pickles (optional)
2/3 cp pickle juice (optional)




Directions:
1. In a large ziploc baggie put the pickle juice and the chicken breast. Make sure the chicken gets covered well with the juice then put in the fridge for 15-20 minutes.
2. While the chicken is marinating, fill a stock pot 1/3 of the way with oil and heat to 300 degrees.
3. In a medium sized bowl whisk together the egg and milk until well blended. In another medium bowl mix together flour, powdered sugar, pepper, and salt.
4. Take chicken and lightly cover with flour mixture, then dip it in the egg mixture covering completely, then back to the flour mixture making sure it is well covered.
5. When oil is heated place the chicken in the oil, make sure you turn the heat up on the burner a bit so that the oil doesn't get cooler than 200 degrees.
6. Fry until the chicken is golden brown and cooked all the way through. Pat off extra oil with a paper towel.
7. Toast the bread of your choice, and put the chicken and pickles on.
