We spent Saturday at the Dartmouth Food Festival, sampling the fab food on offer and it reminded me how much I love street food. One of my favourite make-at-home street food recipes is this crispy buttermilk chicken burger, piled high with honey mustard coleslaw. I’ve perfected the coating for the buttermilk fried chicken over a number of years. It’s super simple to make, REALLY tasty and I use it as a basis for this burger recipe but also some of my other fried chicken recipes, like my Korean Fried Chicken, my base recipe for Crispy Chicken Tenders and Crispy Fried Chicken pieces, as well as my Asian-inspired Chinese Crispy Chicken With Honey Garlic Sauce. 👩🍳PRO TIP You’ll need to cook the chicken in a couple of batches, so keep the cooked chicken pieces warm in a low oven (on a tray, uncovered) whilst you cook the second batch. Now you’re ready to assemble your Chicken Burger. I’ve said it before, but I spent a fair few of my teenage years working in a fried chicken shop - so I know my way around a flippin’ good chicken burger.Although I’m not sure it can technically be classed as a burger if it’s made of chunks of chicken breast? Maybe it’s a Chicken Sandwich? But it’s served in a bun and topped with lots of goodies, so I’m going with Chicken Burger anyway!
