This post was timely.....4 or 5 months ago. You may remember the big fuss the KFC Double Down caused - the "sandwich" made with chicken in place of the bun?
I wanted to go and try one, but I just couldn't bring myself to do it. So instead we made our own.
I cut the chicken breasts in half through the middle, then dipped them in beaten egg while, then panko bread crumbs. And then I baked 'em.
Meanwhile, I crisped some pancetta, and made a honey mustard sauce with honey, mustard and yogurt. When the chicken was cooked we topped one piece with sauce, cheese (I think it was Swiss) and pancetta. Then laid the second piece of chicken on top.
And here is the finished product.
The end result was good - the chicken was flavorful and crunchy. Pancetta is always tasty and the sauce was quite nice. It was fun to try but not something I'd make on a regular basis. How it would compare to an actual double down though, I guess I might never know.
