Follow The Directions

01

Step

5 mins

In a shallow bowl, season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper. (Prep time: 5 minutes)

02

Step

5 mins

Generously coat each piece of chicken with Italian-style panko bread crumbs, pressing firmly to ensure adhesion. (Prep time: 5 minutes)

03

Step

10 mins

Heat peanut oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering. (Prep time: 2 minutes)

04

Step

5 mins

Carefully place the breaded chicken breasts in the hot oil and fry until the bottom is browned and crispy, approximately 4 to 5 minutes.

05

Step

Flip each chicken piece over. Top four of the pieces with thinly sliced green onions and a slice of Cheddar cheese. Fry until the bottom is golden brown and the chicken is no longer pink in the center, about 4 to 5 more minutes. (Cook time: 8-10 minutes)

06

Step

Lightly coat both sides of the hamburger rolls with mayonnaise. (Prep time: 2 minutes)

07

Step

Place one cheese-covered chicken piece and one plain chicken piece on the bottom half of each roll. Top with the other half of the roll and serve immediately.

For an extra layer of flavor, try adding a pinch of garlic powder or smoked paprika to the panko bread crumbs.
Feel free to experiment with different types of cheese, such as pepper jack or provolone.
Add your favorite toppings such as shredded lettuce, sliced tomato, pickles, or a drizzle of hot sauce.
Ensure the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 165°F (74°C) to ensure it is fully cooked.
