INGREDIENTS

For the Chicken:

1½–2 lbs chicken tenders or sliced breasts
1½ cups flour
Kosher salt, pepper, garlic powder, smoked paprika
1 egg + water (for dredging)

For the Biscuits:
2 cups flour
Baking powder, soda, salt
Cold butter, cubed or grated
Buttermilk
Melted butter (for brushing)

DIRECTIONS

Fry the Chicken: Coat in seasoned flour → dip in egg wash → dredge again. Fry in hot oil (365–375°F) until golden and crispy.

Bake the Biscuits: Mix dry ingredients, cut in butter, stir in buttermilk. Fold, flatten, and cut. Bake at 450°F until golden.

Warm the Honey: Gently heat Local Hive Hot Honey. Finish with a splash of apple cider vinegar.

Assemble: Halve the biscuits. Add chicken. Drizzle generously with hot honey. Add pickles if you’re feeling extra.
