Ingredients :
- 12 small boneless skinless chicken thighs
- 4 cups finely chopped pecans
- 1 large egg
- 1/4 cup 2% milk
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon pepper
- 2 to 3 dashes hot pepper sauce, such as Tabasco
- Cooking spray
- BOURBON BERRY JAM:
- 1 package frozen unsweetened mixed berries
- 1 cup sugar
- 1/3 cup bourbon
- 1/4 cup cornstarch
- SLAW:
- 1 package tri-color coleslaw mix
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- 3 tablespoons sugar
- 3 tablespoons lime juice
- 2 packages Hawaiian sweet rolls, split
Directions :
- Preheat air fryer to 375°. Flatten chicken to 1/2-in. thickness; cut each thigh in half. Place pecans in a shallow dish. In another shallow dish, whisk together egg, milk, salt, pepper and pepper sauce. Dip chicken into egg mixture, then coat with pecans. In batches, arrange chicken in a single layer on greased tray in air-fryer basket; spritz with cooking spray. Cook until golden brown, turning once, 8-10 minutes.
- Meanwhile, combine jam ingredients in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer until thick, 1-2 minutes. Remove from heat; crush berries to desired consistency. For slaw, in a large bowl, combine coleslaw mix, mayonnaise, sugar and lime juice. To assemble, spoon 1 heaping tablespoon jam onto bottom of each roll. Layer with hot chicken and slaw; replace tops.
