INGREDIENTS IN CHICKEN BREAKFAST SANDWICH
Chicken- Use boneless chicken thighs for fried chicken.
Bread- I have used regular white bread instead of that you can use multigrain bread, whole wheat bread, or the bread of your choice.
Ginger, garlic, salt, pepper- This fried chicken requires very basic seasoning but you can marinade the chicken with the choice of your seasoning.
Mayonnaise- I have used regular eggless mayonnaise, you can use egg-based mayonnaise, tandoori mayonnaise, or of your choice.
Lemon Juice- It tenderizes and adds a tangy flavor to the chicken.
Jalapenos- I have used canned jalapenos pickles but If you have fresh pickled jalapenos use that or use your favorite pickle. For more freshness and crunch, add sliced onion, cucumber, lettuce, and tomatoes.
HOW TO MAKE FRIED CHICKEN BREAKFAST SANDWICH
Add salt, 1/2 teaspoon black pepper powder, 1/2 teaspoon red chilli powder, 1 lemon juice, and 1 teaspoon ginger garlic paste to the 4 pieces of boneless chicken thighs. Mix it well and marinate it for 25 to 30 minutes or you can marinate the chicken overnight in the refrigerator for more flavor.
Note- Use medium size boneless chicken thighs.

Coat the marinated chicken in the 1/4 cup all-purpose flour + 1/4 teaspoon salt mixture then dip it in 1 egg + 1/4 teaspoon salt + 1/4 teaspoon black pepper powder mixture and lastly coat it with breadcrumbs.

Fry the chicken in medium-hot canola oil until golden brown on both sides, transfer the fried chicken to a kitchen paper towel and keep it aside.

Remove the sides of the bread or cut the bread in a circle shape then spread mayonnaise on one side, place jalapenos or the salad of your choice, fried chicken, and top it with another slip of bread.
Note- Use the bread of your choice and instead of plain mayonnaise you can use siracha mayo, tandoori mayo, or the spread of your choice.

Grill or toast the chicken breakfast sandwich until both sides are golden brown or you can have it without grilling, Serve it immediately.

Yes, You can add fried egg, chicken salami, bacon, or pickle salad. This recipe is very customizable use the bread, sauce, spread, salad, cheese, and pickle of your choice.
Can you eat a fried chicken sandwich for breakfast?
I would not recommend having a fried chicken sandwich for breakfast every day twice or thrice a month is fine but It is not healthy to have it every day for breakfast as it has fried chicken, mayo, and bread. To make the healthier version use multi-grain bread, fresh salad, and airfried chicken or grilled chicken breast.
