Analyzing cooking steps...
Using chicken thighs instead of breasts is highly recommended as they are juicier and harder to overcook.
For the best flavor, marinate the chicken overnight.
When frying, do not overcrowd the pot. Cook the chicken in batches (1-2 pieces at a time) to maintain the oil temperature and ensure crispiness.
Slicing the pickles into long planks instead of rounds ensures you get pickle in every bite.
Always toast your buns! It adds flavor and prevents them from getting soggy.
