The Ingredients To create this fiery masterpiece, gather the following ingredients:

For the bun:

• 1 cup flour

• 2 tsp baking powder

• 1/4 tsp salt

• 3/4 cup plain greek yogurt

For the sandwich:

• 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts

• 1 teaspoon of paprika

• 1/2 teaspoon of cayenne pepper

• 1/2 teaspoon of garlic powder

• 1/2 teaspoon of onion powder

• 1/2 teaspoon of salt

• 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper

• 1 egg

• 1/3 cup buffalo sauce

• 1/2 cup panko breadcrumbs

• 2 tbsp cornstarch or flour

• Optional toppings: lettuce, peppers, onions, mayo, etc.

Instructions:

1. Preheat your oven to 405°F.

2. Start by preparing your homemade buns. Mix together your flour, baking powder, and salt. Then, add in the greek yogurt and knead until a dough-like texture forms.

3. Divide your dough into 2 balls and shape into a bun. Top with a little bit of olive oil and oregano and bake for 20 minutes.

4. While the buns are baking, prepare the chicken breasts. Pound them to an even thickness using a meat mallet or the bottom of a heavy pan. This will ensure they cook evenly and provide that perfect, crispy texture.

5. Coat your chicken breasts with the seasonings mentioned above.

6. In a small bowl combine one egg and a dash of buffalo sauce. Dip the chicken in this wet mixture.

7. Add your breadcrumbs and cornstarch into a bowl and mix. Then, coat both sides of the chicken evenly in this dry mixture.

8. Air fry your chicken breasts on 375°F for 16-18 minutes, flipping halfway through.

9. Coat your crispy chicken with buffalo sauce and air fry for an additional 3 minutes.

10. Now it's time to assemble the sandwich. Slice open your bun, place a crispy chicken breast on the bottom bun and top it with your desired toppings.

11. Finally, crown your sandwich with the top bun, give it a gentle press, and marvel at the creation you've just made.

12. Take a moment to capture a photo of this fiery masterpiece to share with your friends. Get ready to make them drool with envy!

13. Grab that sandwich, sink your teeth into its crispy exterior, and savor the explosive combination of flavors. Let the smoky chipotle heat and the crispy chicken take you on a culinary adventure that will leave you wanting more.
