<h4 class="step-title">Step 1</h4>
Flatten the chicken breasts to an even thickness using a meat mallet or rolling pin. Then, in a mixing bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, 1 teaspoon of paprika, garlic powder, 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper, and 1/2 teaspoon of salt. Add the chicken to the bowl, ensuring each piece is fully coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 4 hours.
</li>
<li class="MethodStepper">
<h4 class="step-title">Step 2</h4>
In a shallow bowl, mix the all-purpose flour, cornstarch, the remaining teaspoon of paprika, 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper, and 1/2 teaspoon of salt. Dredge each piece of buttermilk-soaked chicken in the flour mixture until thoroughly coated.
</li>
<li class="MethodStepper">
<h4 class="step-title">Step 3</h4>
Heat vegetable oil in a large frying pan over medium-high heat. The oil should be about 1 to 2 cm deep. Once hot, carefully place the chicken pieces in the oil. Fry for about 4 minutes per side, or until golden brown and the internal temperature reaches 75°C. Transfer to a wire rack to drain excess oil.
</li>
<li class="MethodStepper">
<h4 class="step-title">Step 4</h4>
Toast the hamburger buns lightly on a skillet or grill pan until golden brown.
</li>
<li class="MethodStepper">
<h4 class="step-title">Step 5</h4>
To assemble the sandwiches, spread 1 tablespoon of mayonnaise on each bun's bottom half. Place a fried chicken breast on top, followed by a lettuce leaf. Add pickles if desired. Cap with the bun's top half and serve immediately.
