    1 1/2 teaspoons white vinegar
    1 teaspoon sugar
    1/4 teaspoon lemon juice
    1/8 teaspoon salt
    1/8 teaspoon parsley
    1/8 teaspoon onion powder
    dash dill weed
    dash garlic powder
    dash ground black pepper
    2 teaspoons hot water
    1/2 teaspoon unflavored gelatin

    6 to 8 cups vegetable shortening
    1 egg
    1 cup water
    1 cup all-purpose flour
    2 1/2 teaspoons salt
    1 teaspoon paprika
    1 teaspoon onion powder
    1/8 teaspoon garlic powder
    4 chicken breast fillets
    4 sesame seed hamburger buns
    4 lettuce leaves
    4 tomato slices
    Kraft Swiss cheese Singles
    8 slices bacon, cooked

    Recipe




    1. Preheat 6 to 8 cups of shortening in a deep fryer to 350
    degrees. If you don't have a deep fryer, you can also pan
    fry using a large frying pan and just a couple cups of shortening.

    2. To prepare the ranch dressing, combine all of the ingredients
    except the water and gelatin in small bowl. Mix the water with
    the gelatin in a small cup until all of the gelatin is dissolved.
    Add this gelatin solution to the other ingredients and stir. Cover
    and chill the dressing until it's needed.

    3. Beat the egg and then combine with 1 cup water in a small,
    shallow bowl. Stir.

    4. Combine the flour, salt, paprika, onion powder and garlic
    powder in another shallow bowl.

    5. Pound each of the breast fillets with a mallet until about
    1/4-inch thick. Trim each breast fillet until it is round.

    6. Working with one fillet at a time, first coat each fillet
    with the flour, then dredge it in the egg and water mixture.
    Coat the chicken once again in the flour and set it aside until
    all of the fillets have been coated.

    7. Fry the chicken fillets for 8 to 12 minutes or until light
    brown and crispy.

    8. As chicken is frying, prepare each sandwich by grilling the
    face of the hamburger buns on a hot skillet over medium heat.
    Spread about 1 1/2 teaspoons of the ranch dressing on the face
    of the top and bottom buns.

    9. On the bottom bun, stack a leaf of lettuce and a tomato slice.

    10. When the chicken is done frying, remove the fillets from the
    fryer and drain them on paper towels or a rack for a couple minutes.

    11. Stack one fillet on the bottom of the sandwich (on top of the
    tomato), then stack a slice of the Swiss cheese onto the chicken.

    12. Arrange the bacon, crosswise, on top of the Swiss cheese, then
    top off the sandwich with the top bun. Repeat the stacking process
    for each of the remaining sandwiches.

    Makes 4 sandwiches.
