Description

Delicious fried chicken coated in a sweet and spicy hot honey glaze.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 1 lbs)
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 tsp paprika
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 1 cup hot honey (store-bought or homemade)
  • 1/4 cup vegetable oil for frying

Instructions

  1. Cut chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces and pat dry.
  2. In a bowl, mix together flour, paprika, salt, and pepper. Coat each chicken piece thoroughly in the mixture.
  3. Heat vegetable oil in a skillet over medium heat.
  4. Fry chicken in batches for 5-7 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through.
  5. In a small pot over low heat, combine hot honey with a splash of water until slightly thin.
  6. Drain fried chicken on paper towels then toss them in the hot honey glaze until evenly coated.

Notes

  • Ensure the oil is hot enough before frying to get a crispy texture.
  • Feel free to adjust the amount of hot honey to taste.
