Method
- Pound out the thicker end of the chicken breast to make the thickness even on both ends, about 1/2-inch thick, then cut each breast in half to make 4 pieces.
- Whisk buttermilk and pickle juice in a bowl. Add chicken and toss to coat; cover with plastic wrap and chill at least 6 hours or overnight.
- Combine flour, garlic powder, paprika, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and cayenne pepper in a shallow bowl.
- Whisk egg in another bowl.
- Line the air fryer basket with an air fryer parchment liner.
- Working with one chicken breast at a time, dip chicken in the flour mixture, shaking off excess. Then into the egg and back into the flour, using the back of a fork to coat well so it adheres.
- Shake excess then transfer to the prepared air fryer basket and spray tops with oil.
- Air fry in batches as needed at 380°F until golden and cooked through, about 15 to 18 minutes, turning halfway, or until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the breast reads 165°F.
- Meanwhile, combine sriracha and mayo in a small bowl.
- To assemble sandwiches, place the mayo on the top of rolls, place the chicken on the bottom roll followed by the pickle chips and tops of rolls.

Notes
For variations, consider trying turkey or plant-based alternatives. Adding different toppings can elevate the flavors even further.
