2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1/2 c. dill pickle juice
2 eggs
1/4 c. milk
1 c. flour
2 T. powdered sugar
1 t. paprika
1 t. salt
1/2 t. black pepper
1/2 t. garlic powder
1/2 t. celery salt
1/2 t. dried basil
3 c. peanut oil, for frying
4 buns, buttered and toasted
dill pickle slices
Place chicken in a zippered bag, pound gently with the flat side of a mallet until about ½ inch thick. Cut each breast into 2 equal pieces.
Marinate chicken in the pickle juice for about 1 hour.
Beat together egg and milk in a bowl.
Mix together the flour, sugar, and spices in another bowl.
Heat the oil in a skillet to about 350 degrees.
Dip each chicken piece, first into the egg covering both sides, then coat in flour on each side. Let sit a little bit before frying.
Fry each chicken piece for 2 minutes on each side, or until golden and cooked through.
Place on paper towels to absorb any excess oil, then serve on toasted buns with pickle slices.
