Hot Hunni Chik’n Biscuit Recipe

Prepare the Chicken

In a large bowl, combine the buttermilk and hot sauce. Add the chicken thighs, ensuring they are fully submerged. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or overnight for best results.

Make the Biscuit Dough

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, sugar, cayenne pepper, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Cut in the butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

Form the Biscuits

Add 1 cup of buttermilk to the flour mixture and stir until just combined. Turn the dough onto a floured surface and fold it gently a few times to create layers. Pat into a 1-inch thick circle and cut out biscuits using a biscuit cutter.

Fry the Chicken

Heat the vegetable oil in a deep skillet over medium-high heat. Remove the chicken from the marinade, letting excess drip off. Fry the chicken in batches until golden brown and cooked through, about 6-8 minutes per side. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate.

Bake the Biscuits

Place the biscuits on a baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, about 10-12 minutes.

Assemble the Dish

Drizzle honey over the fried chicken and serve between two warm biscuits. Enjoy your Hot Hunni Chik'n Biscuit!
