Nashville Hot Chicken

Hot Note: The first bite of a Nashville hot chicken sandwich should make your taste buds scream and you have to walk the fine line between pleasure and pain.

It should be savory salty spicy and hot but not so hot that you can't taste the other spices or the juicy fried meat at all. And yes it should be served with pickle chips on a white roll or bread.

If you want to make your chicken less spicy (we all have our own limits on what we consider spicy and hot) that’s totally fine but don’t try to get too fancy with this chicken sandwich. The beauty of Nashville Hot Chicken is in its simplicity. You don’t need brioche or sourdough or tomatoes or (oh boy!) avocado. This is not the time to gild the lily! The focus here is on the chicken itself.
