- 1 egg
- 1 tsp Pimped Pepper
- Once well mixed, pour the above ingredients over the dry rubbed chicken thighs, mix everything together, getting a good coverage.

- When you are ready to cook the chicken, preheat some cooking oil to 160 degrees Celius in either a heavy deep pan on the stovetop, or in a deep fryer.
3: Flavour Top Coat:
- Mix 1 cup of flour and 1 Tbsp of Crackin' Kiwi Rub together.
- Then one by one coat the chicken thighs in the flour mixture.
- Put each thigh on a wire rack and leave for about 10 minutes to dry out.
- After 10 mins if any of the thighs are still a little wet, re-coat
- with some more of the flour mixture.
- When the thighs are well covered and dry, cook each piece in the oil for around 15 mins until the chicken's internal temp is 70C.
- Once cooked, place each thigh on a wire rack, this will stop the chicken going soggy, When the chicken has cooled down enough to handle you can then assemble your burger.
4: Burger Assembly:
- You know the drill: burger buns, sauce, lettuce, pickles, whatever you fancy, don't be too fussy the chicken is the hero here.
