Ingredients

Scale
  • 1-1/2 to 2 pounds chicken tenders
  • 3 cups all-purpose flour (1-1/2 cups for chicken, 2 cups for biscuits)
  • 3/4 cup buttermilk
  • 1 large egg
  • 3/4 cup (1-1/2 sticks) butter
  • 1 cup honey
  • 2 teaspoons crushed red pepper flakes
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt (total)
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
  • Vegetable, canola or peanut oil for frying

Instructions

  1. Heat oil in a large pot to 365–375°F.
  2. Prepare the chicken coating by combining 1-1/2 cups flour, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and smoked paprika in one bowl. In another bowl, whisk together egg and 2 tablespoons of water.
  3. Dredge chicken in the flour mixture, dip in egg mixture, then coat again with flour.
  4. Fry chicken pieces until golden brown, about 8–10 minutes per batch.
  5. Preheat the oven to 450°F and prepare biscuit dough by mixing 2 cups flour, baking powder, salt, baking soda, and cold butter until crumbly; add buttermilk to form a soft dough.
  6. Cut out biscuits using a biscuit cutter and bake on a lined sheet for 15–17 minutes.
  7. For the hot honey sauce, simmer honey with crushed red pepper flakes then stir in apple cider vinegar.
  8. Assemble by splitting each biscuit, placing fried chicken on top, and drizzling with hot honey.
