Step-by-Step Instructions
- Begin by cleaning and patting dry the chicken breasts. Submerge them in a bowl of buttermilk, sprinkled with salt and white pepper. Leave to marinate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours.
- While the chicken marinates, heat about 1½ inches of vegetable oil in a Dutch oven or deep skillet over medium-high heat. Ensure the oil reaches 350°F.
- In a mixing bowl, combine all-purpose flour with seasonings. Remove the marinated chicken from the buttermilk, shaking off excess, then dredge each piece in the seasoned flour mixture.
- Carefully place two coated pieces of chicken into the hot oil, frying them for about 7 minutes on each side until golden brown and an internal temperature of 165°F is reached.
- Combine ingredients for the bourbon sweet chili sauce in a small saucepan. Bring to a gentle simmer over medium heat for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- In a bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, almond extract, cinnamon, nutmeg, and a pinch of salt. Dip slices of brioche bread into the egg mixture, allowing them to soak.
- Once both the chicken and French toast are ready, assemble the sandwiches by placing a piece of fried chicken between two slices of golden brioche French toast, drizzling with sauce.
