Beer Battered Chicken Sandwich with Lime Coleslaw

Serves 6

Ingredients:

Lime Coleslaw

Directions:

1. In a deep fryer (following deep fryer guidelines) or large, deep stockpot, heat 3 inches of oil over high heat to 350°F. Prepare two rimmed baking sheets with a wire rack on each pan.
2. In a bowl, whisk together the flour, cayenne pepper, salt, and beer.
3. Remove chicken from refrigeration and let stand for 30 minutes prior to battering.
4. Dip to coat all of the chicken pieces in the batter and transfer to one of the prepared baking sheets to allow the excess batter to drip.
5. Fry chicken in batches to not over crowd in the deep fryer or pan. Place the chicken in the hot oil and fry for 8 to 10 minutes, or until golden brown, be careful to not over brown the chicken.
6. Drain the chicken on the clean wire rack and place in 325 degree oven until chicken breast reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees.
7. Top the fried chicken with the slaw and serve in the sesame seed buns.
