To create your very own Zinger Burger masterpiece, gather the following ingredients:

For the Chicken Marinade: 

- 2 boneless chicken breasts

- 1 cup buttermilk

- 1 teaspoon paprika

- 1 teaspoon garlic powder

- 1 teaspoon onion powder

- 1 teaspoon dried thyme

- 1 teaspoon salt

- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper

For the Coating:

- 1 cup all-purpose flour

- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

For Assembling the Burger:

- 4 burger buns

- Mayonnaise

- Lettuce leaves

- Sliced tomatoes

- Sliced onions

- Pickles (optional)

- Oil for frying

Instructions:

1. Begin by marinating the chicken breasts. In a bowl, combine buttermilk, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, dried thyme, salt, and black pepper. Mix well.
2. Add the chicken breasts to the marinade, ensuring they are fully coated. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight to allow the flavors to infuse.
3. In a separate bowl, prepare the coating mixture. Combine all-purpose flour, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, dried thyme, salt, and black pepper. Mix thoroughly.
4. Remove the marinated chicken breasts from the refrigerator and allow them to come to room temperature.
5. Heat oil in a deep frying pan or skillet over medium-high heat. Make sure the oil is hot but not smoking.
6. Take one chicken breast at a time and coat it in the flour mixture, ensuring it is evenly coated. Shake off any excess coating.
7. Gently place the coated chicken breast into the hot oil. Fry each side for about 5-6 minutes or until golden brown and crispy. Ensure the chicken is cooked through and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
8. Once cooked, transfer the chicken to a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil.
9. To assemble the Zinger Burger, spread mayonnaise on both halves of the burger buns. Add a lettuce leaf, sliced tomatoes, onions, and pickles (if desired) onto the bottom bun.
10. Place the crispy chicken fillet on top of the prepared vegetables. Top with the other half of the bun.
11. Repeat the process for the remaining chicken breasts and buns.
12. Serve the Zinger Burgers immediately, and enjoy this crispy and flavorful delight!
