How to Make Mc Donald's Southern Style Chicken Biscuit

  1. Cut each chicken breast horizontally in half, then cut each half in half again, creating 4 equal pieces.
  2. Place chicken pieces in a bowl and pour chicken broth over them. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 2 hours (or up to overnight).
  3. In a large bowl, whisk together eggs and buttermilk.
  4. Remove chicken from the broth and dredge each piece in the egg and buttermilk mixture.
  5. Season chicken generously with pickling spice (or dill), pepper, onion powder, poultry seasoning, and MSG (if using).
  6. Pour oil into a large skillet and heat over medium-high heat to 350°F (175°C). Use a thermometer to check the temperature.
  7. Evenly coat each chicken piece in breadcrumbs, pressing gently to adhere.
  8. Carefully place chicken pieces in the hot oil, ensuring not to overcrowd the pan. Fry for 15-25 minutes, turning halfway through, until golden brown and cooked through (internal temperature should reach 165°F (74°C)).
  9. Remove chicken from oil and place on a wire rack or paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
  10. While chicken is frying, prepare biscuits according to package directions.
  11. Place a piece of fried chicken into the center of each biscuit.
  12. Serve immediately and enjoy your homemade McDonald's-style Southern Style Chicken Biscuit!
