Directions:

Season the chicken with 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon each pepper and paprika.

Heat about 2 inches peanut oil in a heavy-bottomed pot over medium heat until a deep-fry thermometer registers 325 degrees. Meanwhile, whisk the egg,
milk and 2 tablespoons water in a baking dish. Whisk flour and the malted milk powder, confectioners sugar, baking soda, dry mustard, the remaining
1/2 teaspoon paprika and 1 teaspoon each salt and pepper in another dish.

Toss the pickle slices, pickle juice and vinegar in a bowl and set aside.

Working in batches, dip the chicken in the flour mixture, then in the egg mixture, turning to coat and back into the flour mixture and shake off any
excess. Fry the chicken in the hot oil until golden brown, about 4 minutes, adjusting the heat as needed. Drain on paper towels.

Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Spread the cut sides of the buns with some of the butter and lightly toast in the skillet, buttered-side down;
spread with more butter. Put 2 pickle slices on each bun bottom; top with a piece of chicken and cover with the bun tops.
