Make your own McDonald's-style McChicken at home with this crispy, spicy, and juicy recipe. These homemade patties are packed with flavor and taste even better than the real deal! 🫶🏼
Mince the chicken breasts in a blender until smooth and sticky.
Mix in all the spices and combine well.
Test the seasoning by frying a small piece. Adjust salt if needed.
Lightly oil your hands and shape the mixture into round patties.
Place them on a tray lined with parchment paper and freeze for 40-50 minutes (longer if they’re still soft).
In a bowl, whisk together the flour, dry spices, and salt.
Coat each patty with the dry flour mixture, shake off excess, and set aside.
Add 1 tbsp sriracha and 1 cup ice-cold water to the remaining flour mixture. Whisk into a thick batter.
Heat oil in a pan over medium heat.
Dip each flour-coated patty into the wet batter, then carefully place it in the hot oil.
Fry in batches, ensuring not to overcrowd the pan. Cook until golden brown and crispy.
Mix mayonnaise and mustard sauce—that’s it! Simple and delicious.
Toast the brioche buns for extra flavor.
Spread the sauce on both sides of the bun.
Add the crispy chicken patty, top with diced lettuce, and drizzle more sauce.
Close the burger and enjoy fresh with fries and ketchup!
Notes
Freezing the patties helps them hold their shape while frying. Double-coating with flour and batter makes the chicken extra crispy. Use brioche buns for the best texture and taste.
