Instructions
1
|
Blend the chicken breast with cornstarch, salt, pepper, paprika, garlic powder, and MSG until smooth. Oil your hands and shape the mixture into 6 small patties. Freeze until firm, this helps them keep their shape when frying.
2
|
Add all dry ingredients (flour, cornstarch, baking powder + spices) to a bowl. Dredge each frozen patty once in the dry mix. After all patties are coated, add 1 cup of water to the bowl and mix → this creates the wet batter. Dip each patty directly into the wet batter and place it straight into hot oil, do NOT let them sit after dipping.
3
|
Fry the patties in hot oil until golden and crispy. Let them drain on a rack or paper towel.

Slice your garlic knot buns. Spread McChicken sauce on both sides. Add shredded iceberg lettuce. Place the crispy chicken patty on top. Close and brush the buns lightly with garlic butter if desired.

Tips & Tricks (5)
- Double-Dredge for Maximum Crunch 🍗Dredge the chicken breast in the flour-cornstarch mixture twice, letting it rest 5 minutes between coatings, to create an ultra-crunchy exterior that rivals fast-food quality.
- Bloom Your Seasonings 🧄Toast the garlic powder, paprika, and MSG together in a dry pan for 30 seconds before mixing into your flour blend to intensify flavors and eliminate raw spice notes.
- Pound Evenly for Uniform Cooking ⚒️Use a meat mallet to pound chicken breasts to ¼-inch thickness, ensuring even cooking and preventing dry edges while maintaining juicy centers in your sliders.
- Toast Your Garlic Knot Buns 🥐Lightly butter and toast the slider buns in a skillet for 1-2 minutes to add crunch and prevent sogginess from the sauce and juices of the crispy chicken patty.
- Oil Temperature is Critical 🌡️Maintain oil at 350°F for frying; use a thermometer to ensure consistent temperature, which prevents grease absorption and guarantees a golden, crispy coating in 3-4 minutes.
