Step 3

Once done, drop the marinated chicken into the batter, then arrange them on a baking sheet. After this, place the baking sheet in the refrigerator and let the chicken sit for 30 minutes to two hours. Preheat 2 quarts of oil in a heavy-bottomed pan to 350 degrees F, then gently drop the chicken. Deep fry each for seven minutes or until nicely browned.

Step 4

After frying, lay them over a paper towel to remove excess oil. Once the chicken is cooled, assemble the sandwich. Slice the biscuit in half, add a layer of slaw, add a piece of chicken, then place the top biscuit. Add a poached egg (optional) on top and serve. Enjoy!
