Notes -

Can I Use Chicken Breast?

You can definitely use chicken breast instead of thighs. The chicken breast will need to be butterflied and sliced into two even-sized fillets. As for cooking times, fry the breast for 3 minutes on each side at the same temperature of 170.c-340.f.

Mayonnaise By Hand -

To make the mayonnaise by hand, secure a bowl with a damp tea towel wrapped around the bottom. Add in all of the ingredients except the oil and whisk together until smooth. Whilst continuously and vigorously whisking, very slowly pour in the oil to create the emulsion. If it starts to pool on top, stop immediately and whisk it in before adding more. This can also be made in a blender or food processor.

How Long Will The Mayo Last?

The mayonnaise will last up to 2 days in the fridge but I can guarantee it will be gone in one sitting, its so good!

Someone just gave me a deep fryer and this popped up this morning. Serendipity? Looks like a great lunch for today! Thanks, Chef!

[jgraef]

The consistency of the mayo looks marvelous, Jack. Beautiful burger. Another nice to-the-point video.

I just need to give a shout out to the level of detail you go into in the description. The list of ingredients, the alternative methods etc. It really is above and beyond. I hope your channel and website continues to grow. Best wishes.

Made many chicken sandwiches I was disappointed with. This was impressive. Tasty on all levels. Great sauce. I will be making this again.

[Letus]

Wow Jack I was looking for ages for a some kind of special burger sauce. This one that you shared with us is the bomb. Thank you so much :)

[gailies]

Never thought of thighs in my burger bun, it's my favourite part along side the drumstick. Gonna try this when my granddaughter comes over, I'll supply the burger and I know she'll do the cocktails 😂 🤣 Another lovely feast, thank you chef 😋 😋

[spartanmoon]

This looks so damn good, I can eat 2 of them! You should try it with fried, salty cod fish, with this delicious Greek garlic sauce, 'skordalia', in place of the mayonnaise, and a squirt of lemon....you will become addicted! Whoever lives with you is super lucky to eat your cooking...

[DrBrunoRecipes]

Looks delicious 👌🏻 Greetings from Scotland 😊 Have a wonderful day everyone 🌻

[Emustrider]

So good to see your channel growth over the last 2 years. Been here since your mushroom sauce recipe!

[jollygoodgordon]

awesome burger! i did make a crispy zinger style burger at home but to marinade the chicken i used the spicy sauce of the fire noodle, cus it has a lot of good flavour not just spice, and it turned out amazing.

[Mrfteixeira]

Made the chicken as an entree but I didn't have buttermilk so I substituted with equal parts of lime juice and soy sauce ( a typical Dominican Republic marinade for chicken) together with the spices you indicated. It came out absolutely delicious with the spicy mayo as a dipping sauce,

[radiantdragon]

Its a real video... I was thinking of the other Australian 'cook' one handed.. where it starts alright but ends in chaos. Thx for the recipe :)

[Timothy]

Thanks again, Jack! Another mid-week family meal sorted. I did chuckle that you took a bite off-camera as I was wondering how you were going to do that politely!

[mkenne]

I really love your instructions. You don't get that on any other cooking videos

[dazuotv]

Now that looks tasty. My wife loves chicken burgers so I will give this a spin next weekend 👍

[StephenJohnson-jbxe]

Smoked paprika is one of my favorite spices so it's good to see so much of it being used here.

[suesheehan]
