Make crunchy, flavorful chicken patties and serve them on small buns with a homemade creamy garlic sauce.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1.5 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 12 small patties
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 2 large eggs, beaten
  • 1 cup buttermilk
  • 2 cups panko breadcrumbs
  • Vegetable oil, for frying (or cooking spray for air frying)
  • 12 slider buns
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise
  • 2 tablespoons sour cream
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  • Pinch of salt and pepper
  • Optional: Shredded lettuce, sliced pickles

Instructions

  1. Prepare the chicken: Season the flour mixture with salt, pepper, paprika, and garlic powder in one shallow dish. In a second dish, whisk the eggs and buttermilk. In a third dish, place the panko breadcrumbs.
  2. Dredge each chicken patty first in the flour mixture, shaking off excess. Dip into the egg/buttermilk mixture, letting excess drip off. Finally, press firmly into the panko breadcrumbs to coat completely.
  3. Cook the chicken: Heat about 1 inch of vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat to 350°F (175°C). Carefully place the coated patties in the hot oil, ensuring not to overcrowd the pan. Fry for 3-4 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through (internal temperature of 165°F or 74°C). Remove and drain on a wire rack. (Alternatively, air fry at 375°F (190°C) for 12-15 minutes, flipping halfway).
  4. Make the garlic sauce: In a small bowl, combine the mayonnaise, sour cream, minced garlic, lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Mix until smooth.
  5. Assemble the sliders: Lightly toast the slider buns if desired. Spread a generous amount of the garlic sauce on both the top and bottom buns. Place one crispy chicken patty on the bottom bun. Top with lettuce and pickles, if using, and place the top bun on.
  6. Serve the sliders immediately.

Notes

  • For extra crispiness, chill the breaded chicken patties for 15 minutes before frying.
  • You can substitute buttermilk with regular milk mixed with 1 teaspoon of white vinegar or lemon juice.
  • If you prefer a thinner sauce, add a teaspoon of water to the garlic sauce mixture.
