Crispy Chicken Sandwich

Crispy chicken sandwiches are my weakness. I’m also very picky. I only like chicken sandwiches if it’s made with white meat. It also has to be crispy, seasoned, and served on a soft warm buttered roll. I also love bacon, tomato, and any type of white cheese. For some reason I don’t like yellow cheese on my chicken sandwiches. I’m weird. These are super flavorful, crispy, and juicy, so give them a try.
