Lookin juicy as always. I guess the sandwich looks alright too…

My man just held my attention for 11 minutes over a McChicken competition. Love it, keep ‘em coming!

Those sandwiches look incredible. You have such an eye for quality, I feel like you try to get the most out of every ingredient.

I know you'll probably never see this, but I have to thank you for this! I have celiac disease and haven't had a mcchicken in years and with your recipe, I was able to create it at home! I just replaced the flour and panko with gluten free, and made the chicken Patty's and they were incredible! Thank you!

McChickens are $7.60 in Canada. I want to cry

[alexanderwang]

One thing you missed is pepper in the flour/breadcrumbs. Its a hugely important proponent of the taste of mcchickens

So in Canada, the McChicken comes on a sesame seed bun and I think it's a bigger patty overall. The American McChicken is the Canadian Junior Chicken. We also had a grilled Junior Chicken but they discontinued that years ago. Sad days.

I made this as close to the recipe as possible. You and your team are geniuses. I even turned it into McChicken tacos! Perfection.

Hey Joshua ! Im a big fan of yours, you are the reason i started cooking and my wife loves it. Our youngest daughter hates everything, and today i tried this recipe, she said it was a 10 out of 10. And our family of 6 approved that it was the best chicken burger we ever ate ! Thank you so much for your wonderful content, never stop please i don't know what i would do without all your guide ❤

It would be awesome if you could do a "But Better" cookbook. I'm assuming names would need to be left out for obvious reasons, but we would know... A "But Cheaper" cookbook would be awesome as well.

Man... I really love when you beat McDon's things, because I work with their ad filming group all the time. As someone who sees how those ads are made, how meticulously the chef assembles that one "perfect" burger in long hours of shots, you've just made it out in one go without even using a hair spray. Kudos man! I'd bet that the whole (uncut) process would be still less than what we have to bear in every damn shooting..

great to see that you're still putting out amazing content Josh, also i'm absolutely addicted to this series so keep up the good work!

Restaurant foods are surprisingly easy to make and you can spice it up to your own taste. Most of them can be frozen for later. And you know who handled it last.

Can you make Girl Scout cookies? Maybe a bit controversial considering the proceeds go to paying for everything they do for the kids, but you can only really get them at a specific time of year, and it's so hard to find a troop selling them if you live in a no soliciting area.

It's not hard to beat a Mcdonalds chicken sandwich. All you have to do is grab a real chicken breast or thigh and you've already won.

when you dont have food to eat, watching food being made or people eating food becomes the next best thing, this looks amazing.

For me, it's the McChicken. The best fast food sandwich. I even ask for extra McChicken sauce packets and the staff is so friendly and more than willing to oblige.
One time I asked for McChicken sauce packets and they gave me three. I said, "Wow, three for free!" and the nice friendly McDonald's worker laughed and said, "I'm going to call you 3-for-free!".
Now the staff greets me with "hey it's 3-for-free!" and ALWAYS give me three packets. It's such a fun and cool atmosphere at my local McDonald's restaurant, I go there at least 3 times a week for lunch and a large iced coffee with milk instead of cream, 1-2 times for breakfast on the weekend, and maybe once for dinner when I'm in a rush but want a great meal that is affordable, fast, and can match my daily nutritional needs.
I even dip my fries in McChicken sauce, it's delicious! What a great restaurant.

Made this today, took me all morning and tons of dishes! BUT it was so worth it!!! I will be making this again soon.
