Instructions
Slice the cleaned chicken of the woods mushrooms (if need be) into chicken filet size pieces. Marinate the mushrooms in the pickle juice for 15-30 minutes.
Drain the pickle juice from the mushrooms. Season the flour with salt and pepper, to taste. Dredge the mushroom pieces in the seasoned flour, then in the beaten eggs, and then into the panko bread crumbs.
Fry the coated chicken of the woods mushrooms in hot oil in a skillet, flipping halfway though, until lightly browned on both sides - about 3-5 minutes per side. Drain on a paper towel lined plate
Spread mayonnaise on the inside of your bun. Place your chicken of the woods mushroom inside & top with sliced pickles.
Notes
There are no real measurements here. Just dredge the chicken of the woods mushrooms in the ingredients in the appropriate order, adding more of each ingredient to your dredging containers as needed.
