Ice Cream Fried Chicken Burger

Experience the ultimate sweet and savory fusion with this crispy fried chicken burger, uniquely topped with a rich, creamy scoop of ice cream and honey.

Ingredients

• 2 pieces chicken thighs, deboned
• 200 ml milk
• 2 eggs
• 100 g cake flour
• 50 g seasoned breadcrumbs
• 30 g Parmesan cheese
• 2 tbsp spices of choice
• 2 hamburger buns
• 1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
• 2 tbsp egg yolk sauce
• 2 slices cheese
• 1 scoop premium ice cream
• 1 tsp honey

Instructions

1. 1Debone the chicken

   

   Carefully debone the chicken thighs on a metal tray, ensuring the skin remains intact for a better texture when fried.

   Tip: Keep the knife sharp and follow the bone structure to remove it cleanly without wasting meat.
2. 2Prepare the marinade

   

   In a metal container, combine white milk with eggs and your chosen spices, whisking until well incorporated to form the chicken marinade.

   Tip: The milk helps tenderize the chicken, while the eggs ensure the flour coating adheres properly.
3. 3Marinate the chicken

   

   Submerge the deboned chicken pieces into the prepared milk and egg marinade. Allow them to marinate for up to 12 hours for maximum flavor.

   Tip: Ensure the chicken is fully covered by the liquid for an even marinade.
4. 4Prepare the coating

   

   In a shallow tray, combine flour with seasoned breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, and your preferred spices, mixing them thoroughly.

   Tip: For extra crunch, you can also add crushed crispy noodles to the mixture.
5. 5Coat the chicken

   

   Take the marinated chicken pieces and coat them thoroughly in the flour mixture, ensuring an even layer without making it too thick.

   Tip: Press the coating onto the chicken gently to help it stick to the surface.
6. 6Fry the chicken

   

   Heat oil to 170 degrees and deep-fry the coated chicken pieces for 4 to 5 minutes until golden brown and crispy.

   Tip: Do not overcrowd the pot to maintain the oil temperature and ensure even frying.
7. 7Prepare the buns

   

   Drizzle a small amount of extra virgin olive oil onto the cut sides of the hamburger bun halves. This adds a rich flavor and ensures a perfect, golden toast when heated in the oven.

   Tip: Toast the buns at 180 degrees for 6 minutes after applying the olive oil to achieve the ideal texture.
8. 8Apply egg yolk sauce

   

   Take your toasted bun and generously spread a layer of creamy egg yolk sauce across the surface. This savory, rich base balances the sweet and crispy elements of the burger.

   Tip: Ensure the bun is cooled slightly before spreading the sauce to keep the texture of the dressing intact.
9. 9Assemble the chicken and cheese

   

   Place the prepared crispy fried chicken thigh onto the sauce-covered bun. Immediately layer a slice of cheese on top of the hot chicken so it begins to soften from the residual heat.

   Tip: Make sure the fried chicken is freshly out of the fryer to provide the best contrast with the cool ice cream later.
10. 10Melt the cheese

    

    Use a kitchen blow-torch to carefully melt the cheese slice until it becomes perfectly gooey and coats the fried chicken. This technique intensifies the savory flavor profile of the chicken.

    Tip: Keep the torch moving in circular motions to melt the cheese evenly without burning the crispy coating of the chicken.
