Ingredients

• 1 pound boneless skinless chicken breasts
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 0.5 cup cornstarch
• 2 teaspoons garlic powder
• 2 teaspoons onion powder
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 cup buttermilk
• 1 large egg
• 4 cups vegetable oil
• 0.5 cup hot sauce (such as Frank's RedHot)
• 0.25 cup honey
• 2 tablespoons brown sugar
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 1 teaspoon white vinegar
• 1 teaspoon corn syrup (optional, for extra stickiness)

Directions

Step 1

Cut the chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces, roughly 1 inch in size.

Step 2

In a medium bowl, combine the flour, cornstarch, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper.

Step 3

In a separate bowl, whisk together the buttermilk and egg to create a wet batter.

Step 4

Heat the vegetable oil in a large, deep pot or fryer to 350°F (175°C).

Step 5

Dip each piece of chicken into the buttermilk mixture, allowing any excess to drip off, and then coat it thoroughly in the flour mixture. Repeat for all chicken pieces for a double coating, if desired, for extra crispiness.

Step 6

Carefully place the coated chicken pieces into the hot oil, frying in batches to avoid overcrowding. Fry for 5–6 minutes, or until the chicken is golden brown and fully cooked. Remove with a slotted spoon and transfer to a wire rack or paper towel-lined plate to drain.

Step 7

In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine the hot sauce, honey, brown sugar, unsalted butter, white vinegar, and optional corn syrup. Stir until the mixture is smooth and slightly thickened, about 5 minutes.

Step 8

Toss the fried chicken pieces in the hot sauce mixture until coated evenly.

Step 9

Serve immediately with your favorite dipping sauce or alongside some celery and carrot sticks for a classic combo.
