4 pieces chicken breast
1/2 cup hot sauce
1/3 cup honey
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 1/2 cups buttermilk
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp black pepper
1 tsp paprika
8 pieces biscuit dough
2 tbsp butter
Directions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
- In a medium bowl, mix hot sauce and honey together until well combined creating a sweet-spicy sauce.
- Season chicken breasts with salt, pepper, and paprika before dredging them in flour for an even coat.
- Dip each floured chicken breast into buttermilk, then once more into flour, ensuring a thick, even breading.
- Melt butter in a frying pan over medium-high heat, then fry chicken until golden brown on both sides.
- Transfer chicken to the prepared baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes or until fully cooked.
- While chicken bakes, bake biscuits according to package instructions until golden brown and flaky.
- Brush cooked chicken with the hot honey mixture, coating each piece generously for maximum flavor.
- Split warm biscuits, placing a hot honey chicken breast inside each before closing them back up.
- Serve immediately while the biscuits are warm and the chicken is juicy for the best flavor experience.
