1. 1

   Ranch Dressing 1/3 cup mayonnaise

2. 2

   Preheat 6 to 8 cups of shortening in a deep fryer to 350 degrees.

3. 3

   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.

4. 4

   To prepare the ranch dressing, combine all of the ingredients except the water and gelatin in small bowl.

5. 5

   Mix the water with the gelatin in a small cup until all of the gelatin is dissolved.

6. 6

   Add this gelatin solution to the other ingredients and stir.

7. 7

   Cover and chill the dressing until it's needed.

8. 8

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

9. 9

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

10. 10

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

11. 11

    Working with one fillet at a time, first coat each fillet with the flour, then dredge it in the egg and water mixture.

12. 12

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

13. 13

    As chicken is frying, prepare each sandwich by grilling the face of the hamburger buns on a hot skillet over medium heat.

14. 14

    Spread about 1 1/2 teaspoons of the ranch dressing on the face of the top and bottom buns.

15. 15

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

16. 16

    Stack one fillet on the bottom of the sandwich (on top of the tomato), then top it off with the top bun.

    Repeat the stacking process for each of the sandwiches.
