Popeye's chicken sandwiches are awesome and no one has to stand in the rain.
Take one chicken breast, sliced about an inch thick and then pounded to half that. Marinate the pieces in pickle brine for about a day, then dry, bread, and fry them.
Just as good as Chik fil a and you don’t have to even leave the house. And one chicken breast can make 5-6 patties
For breading I do 1 cup flour, ½ cup cornstarch, 1 tsp baking soda, seasonings. For my wetter I use 1 egg white, 1 tsp water, whisked. Bread (paper bag is what I shake it in), then dip in wetter, then bread again, and fry asap. The water in the wetter activates the baking soda slowly (faster in the fryer), but you want to fry it before it totally reacts (this is what introduces the bubbles in the batter that gives the flour mix its volume).
I created this starting at a popeyes copycat recipe and expanded upon it, to create a solid generic that I work off of. For seasonings, I'll simply use a Cajun seasoning mix and give it a few shakes.
That’s a great recipe for duplicating Popeye’s, but personally I like the super crunch of some panko bread crumbs.
And once you’ve got the frying down you can tweak the seasoning and do things like chicken parm or sweet and sour chicken.
