  5. Dredge each piece of chicken in the flour mixture, dip in the egg wash, and coat with panko breadcrumbs.
  6. Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat, then fry chicken for 4-5 minutes on each side.
  7. Combine mayonnaise, fresh dill, and lemon juice in a bowl for dill mayo.
  8. Lightly toast the brioche buns in a toaster or on a skillet for 1-2 minutes.
  9. Spread dill mayo on the inner sides of both toasted brioche buns, layer shredded lettuce, fried chicken, and dill pickles.
