Ingredients

Scale

For the Chicken:

  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken thighs (or breasts)
  • 1 cup buttermilk (for tenderizing)
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • Vegetable oil for frying

For the Biscuits:

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tbsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 6 tbsp cold unsalted butter, cubed
  • 3/4 cup buttermilk
  • Store-bought biscuits can also be used for convenience

For the Hot Honey:

  • 1/2 cup honey
  • 12 tsp red pepper flakes (adjust to taste)
  • 1 tsp apple cider vinegar (optional, for tanginess)
  • Pinch of salt

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Chicken: Marinate chicken in buttermilk, coat with seasoned flour, and fry until golden brown.
  2. Make the Biscuits: Mix dry ingredients, cut in butter, add buttermilk, shape, and bake.
  3. Make the Hot Honey: Heat honey, stir in red pepper flakes, vinegar, and salt, simmer briefly, then cool.
  4. Assemble the Biscuits: Slice biscuits, place fried chicken on bottom half, drizzle with hot honey, and top with the other biscuit half.

Notes

  • Be cautious when frying the chicken to ensure it is cooked through but not overdone.
  • Adjust the amount of red pepper flakes in the hot honey to suit your spice preference.
  • For a quicker option, use store-bought biscuits instead of making them from scratch.
