Ingredients

Scale

For the Chicken:

2 boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into slider-sized pieces
1 cup buttermilk
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup panko breadcrumbs
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1 egg
Oil for frying

For the Bang Bang Sauce:

1/2 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup Thai-style sweet chili sauce
1 tablespoon Sriracha (adjust to taste)
1 teaspoon honey (optional)

For Assembly:

6 slider buns or Hawaiian rolls
Lettuce leaves (optional)
Pickled onions or slaw (optional garnish)

Instructions

Marinate the Chicken: Place chicken pieces in a bowl with buttermilk. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, up to 2 hours.
Prepare Breading: In one bowl, beat the egg. In another, mix flour with salt, pepper, and paprika. In a third, add panko breadcrumbs.
Bread the Chicken: Dredge chicken in flour, dip in egg, then coat in panko until well covered.
Fry: Heat oil in a skillet and fry chicken pieces 3–4 minutes per side until golden and cooked through. Drain on paper towels.
Make Sauce: Mix mayonnaise, sweet chili sauce, Sriracha, and honey until smooth.
Assemble: Spread sauce on buns, add lettuce, place crispy chicken inside, and drizzle more sauce. Top with pickled onions or slaw if desired. Serve immediately.

Notes

Use panko breadcrumbs for maximum crunch.
For thicker crust, double-dip chicken in flour, egg, and panko.
Adjust spice level by adding more or less Sriracha to the sauce.
For a lighter version, bake or air fry the chicken instead of deep-frying.
Use soft slider buns like brioche or Hawaiian rolls for the best flavor balance.
