I had another craving for fried chicken but this time on a burger and some fries.  Since I have been making a lot of bread recently I decided to make the buns myself.

For the bread buns, you will need:

Fried Chicken

• 2-4 chicken breasts (depending on how many people you’re making this for)
• Milk
• Bread crumbs
• Hot and spicy chicken coating
• A skillet
• Olive Oil

For the bread:

• 1 cup of warm water
• 1 Packet of yeast
• 1 Tablespoon of salt
• 1 Tablespoon of sugar/sweetener
• 2 Table spoons of pepper
• 2 Cup of flour
• 1 large mixing bowl
• Olive Oil
• a whisk/wooden spoon/something your comfortable mixing with
• Rolling pin

Fried Chicken Method

1. Pour a lot of olive oil into the skillet so that the chicken is full covered in oil when frying.
2. Chop the chicken breasts into thick slices.
3. Pour a little milk all over the chicken followed by the hot and spicy chicken coating and bread crumbs.  Make sure all of the chicken is covered
4. Put the chicken into the skillet and use tongs or chopsticks to stir and check on the chicken.
5. Cook until golden brown.

Bread Method

1. Pour the warm water into a the mixing bowl followed by the yeast and wait five minutes.  (Whilst you’re waiting you could make the garlic butter)
2. Once the five minutes are over put the flour, sugar/sweetener, salt and ONE tablespoon of pepper into the mixing bowl.
3. Stir this mixture until there is no moisture left.  If the dough is still damp, add more flour until it is dryer.
4. Once you have finished you should have a ball of dough.  Coat the dough lightly in olive oil and wrap in cling film.  Wait 10 mins – 1 hour depending on how hungry you are.
5. Take a medium size chunk of the dough and roll into a circle.  When this is done make sure the bottom is flat the top is round like a semi circle.
6. Put into the oven for 15-20 mins on 180-200 degrees.
7. Cut in half and your burger buns are ready.

Enjoy with some fries, vegetables and sauces of your choice.
