• Then, coat the chicken with the flour mixture by gently pressing it to coat.
• Fry the chicken on each side for 6-8 mins or until golden brown. The internal temperature should reach 165degF. Drain the chicken on a plate lined with paper towels.

4. Toast the Buns

• Butter the inside of the brioche rolls. Toast the brioche buns in a pan on medium heat for 2 to 3 minutes until golden brown.
