For an extra crispy crust, consider double-frying the chicken. After the initial fry, let the chicken cool slightly before frying it again for another 2-3 minutes per side. Adjust the amount of sriracha in the mayonnaise to suit your spice preference. Start with a smaller amount and add more to taste. Feel free to experiment with different types of pickles. Bread and butter pickles or spicy pickles would also be delicious. To keep the sandwiches warm if not serving immediately, wrap them individually in foil and keep them in a warm oven (around 200 degrees F) for up to 30 minutes.

Follow The Directions
01
StepPreheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
02
StepPlace 1/2 cup of the flour in a small bowl. (Prep time: 2 minutes)
03
StepIn a shallow bowl, beat the egg lightly with a fork. (Prep time: 1 minute)
04
StepIn a separate bowl, combine the remaining 1 cup of flour with the ranch dressing mix. Whisk well to ensure even distribution. (Prep time: 3 minutes)
05
StepCarefully slice each chicken breast horizontally to create 4 thinner cutlets. Dredge each cutlet in the plain flour, then dip into the beaten egg, and finally coat thoroughly with the flour-ranch mixture. Place the breaded chicken cutlets on a wire rack set over a rimmed baking sheet. (Prep time: 15 minutes)
06
StepIn a large, heavy-bottomed saucepan, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it shimmers and is almost boiling. Carefully add 2 chicken cutlets to the hot oil and fry until lightly golden and cooked through, turning once, about 5 minutes per side. Remove the chicken and place it back on the wire rack. Repeat with the remaining 2 chicken cutlets. (Cook time: 20 minutes)
07
StepBake the chicken in the preheated oven until the juices run clear when pierced with a fork, about 10 minutes. This ensures the chicken is cooked through and extra crispy. (Cook time: 10 minutes)
08
StepWhile the chicken is baking, prepare the sriracha-mayo. In a small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise and sriracha sauce until smooth and creamy. (Prep time: 3 minutes)
09
StepTo assemble the sandwiches, spread a generous amount of sriracha-mayo on both halves of each potato roll. Arrange 4 dill pickle chips on the bottom half of each roll. Top with a piece of fried chicken and cover with the top half of the roll. Serve immediately and enjoy! (Prep time: 5 minutes)
