Description

A delightful blend of crispy baked chicken with a spicy-sweet hot honey glaze, perfect for weeknight dinners or casual gatherings.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 chicken thighs or breasts
  • 1 cup breadcrumbs
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 eggs
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 2 tablespoons hot sauce
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Oil spray for baking

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. In a bowl, mix the honey and hot sauce; set aside. In another bowl, combine flour seasoned with garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. In a third bowl, beat the eggs until well mixed.
  3. Dip each chicken piece in the seasoned flour, then into the beaten eggs, and coat with breadcrumbs.
  4. Place the coated chicken on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Lightly spray the chicken with oil and bake for 25-30 minutes until golden brown and fully cooked. Drizzle the hot honey mixture over the chicken just before serving.

Notes

For extra crunch, use panko breadcrumbs. Adjust hot sauce for desired heat. Optionally marinate chicken in buttermilk for extra flavor.
