Hot Honey Crispy Chicken Sandwich Ingredients

Method

Hot Honey Crispy Chicken Sandwich Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken

    In a bowl, marinate the chicken breasts in buttermilk for at least 1 hour in the refrigerator.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Breading

    In a separate bowl, mix together the flour, cornstarch, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper.

  3. 3

    Bread the Chicken

    Remove the chicken from the buttermilk, allowing excess to drip off. Dredge each piece in the flour mixture until well-coated.

  4. 4

    Fry the Chicken

    In a deep skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, carefully place the breaded chicken in the oil and fry for about 5-7 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Drain on paper towels.

  5. 5

    Assemble the Sandwich

    Spread Mike’s Hot Honey on the bottom half of the brioche bun. Add fried chicken, coleslaw, sliced tomato, and house pickles. Top with the other half of the bun.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Serve the sandwich with a side of French fries, if desired.
