Fried Chicken Sandwich with Creamy Slaw and Sriracha Aioli
I Had to get on the Fried Chicken Sandwich Bandwagon! This is my take on the infamous sandwich— I used Brioche for the bun, a sriracha Aioli mixed with some smoked paprika for the smear and I also used it on the coleslaw. I highly suggest using skin on boneless chicken thighs for this sandwich,trust me.
