step by step

Method

  1. Form the patties

    • Combine the minced chicken with the salt, black pepper, paprika, garlic powder and onion powder and mix well.
    • Shape into patties slightly larger than the buns.
    • Place on a parchment-lined tray and freeze to firm up.
    Step 1

  2. Prepare the coatings

    • Mix the plain flour, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper and a pinch of salt in a bowl for the dry coat.
    • In another bowl, whisk the water, plain flour, cornstarch, salt, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder and black pepper to a smooth, slightly thick pancake-batter consistency.
    Step 2

  3. Coat the patties

    • Coat the chilled patties in the dry flour mix, pressing so it adheres.
    • Dip them into the wet batter and let the excess drip off.
    • For extra crispiness, repeat the dry coat once more.
    Step 3

  4. Fry the patties

    • Heat the oil to 170–180 °C.
    • Fry each patty for 4–6 minutes per side until golden and cooked through (about 74 °C inside).
    • Drain on paper towels or a wire rack.
    Step 4

  5. Make the McChicken sauce

    • Mix the mayonnaise, white vinegar, yellow mustard and sugar until smooth.
    • Adjust the sugar or vinegar to your preferred balance of tang and sweetness.
    Step 5

  6. Assemble the burgers

    • Lightly toast the buns if desired.
    • Spread the sauce on the top bun and add a handful of shredded iceberg lettuce.
    • Place the crispy chicken patty on the bottom bun, close the burger and serve hot.
