Method
Pound the chicken pieces to an even thickness.
Marinate the chicken in the milk with 2 tbsp hot sauce and half the salt and pepper, and refrigerate for at least an hour.
Mix the flour with the cornstarch, paprika, garlic and the rest of the salt and pepper.
Take a piece out of the milk, coat it in the flour and press, dip it back in the milk, then into the flour again.
Heat the oil to 170°C (340°F) and fry the pieces for 6–7 minutes until golden and crisp.
Mix the mayonnaise with the remaining spoon of hot sauce.
Toast the buns, spread with the spicy mayo, add lettuce and chicken (and a cheese slice), and close.
