In the 24th episode of Sam The Cooking Guy season 1, titled Homemade Fried Chicken Sandwich, Sam shares his recipe for a classic and delicious comfort food - the fried chicken sandwich. He begins by preparing the marinade for the chicken which includes buttermilk, hot sauce, garlic, and onion powder. He then takes boneless and skinless chicken breasts and cuts them into smaller pieces, and soaks them in the marinade for a few hours to tenderize them and infuse the flavors.
Next, Sam gets to work on creating the batter for the chicken. He mixes together flour, cornstarch, salt, pepper, paprika, and cayenne pepper. He then heats up some oil in a frying pan and dips the chicken pieces into the batter before carefully placing them in the hot oil. He fries the chicken pieces for a few minutes on each side until they are cooked through and golden brown.
While the chicken is cooking, Sam prepares the rest of the sandwich. He toasts some brioche buns and gets together some toppings including lettuce, tomato, and mayonnaise. Once the chicken is done, he assembles the sandwich by spreading mayonnaise on the bottom bun, adding a piece of chicken, lettuce, tomato, and then topping it off with the other bun.
Sam takes a bite of the sandwich and is immediately impressed by the crunchiness of the chicken and the combination of flavors and textures in the sandwich. He then takes it to the streets to get some feedback from strangers on how they think the sandwich tastes. The response is overwhelmingly positive, with people praising the crispy chicken and the overall taste of the sandwich.
To finish off the episode, Sam shares some tips and tricks for making the perfect fried chicken sandwich, including using a meat thermometer to ensure the chicken is cooked through, and using a mix of both flour and cornstarch in the batter to get a crispy crust. He also recommends experimenting with different sauces and toppings to find your perfect combination.
Overall, Homemade Fried Chicken Sandwich is a mouth-watering episode of Sam The Cooking Guy, perfect for anyone looking to up their comfort food game and enjoy a delicious sandwich.
