  • 1 pound boneless skinless chicken thighs
  • 1 cup hot honey
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour for dredging
  • 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine flour, baking powder, and salt.
  • Cut in the cold butter using a pastry cutter or your hands until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  • Stir in the buttermilk until just combined.
  • Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface and gently knead it a few times until it comes together.
  • Roll out the dough to about 1-inch thick and cut into circles using a biscuit cutter.
  • Place biscuits on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake for 15-20 minutes until golden brown.
  • While the biscuits bake, prepare the chicken by seasoning the thighs with salt and cayenne.
  • Dredge each chicken thigh in flour, shaking off any excess.
  • Heat vegetable oil in a deep skillet to 350°F (175°C).
  • Fry the chicken thighs for about 5-7 minutes per side until golden and cooked through.
  • Remove the chicken from the oil and let it drain on paper towels.
  • Once the biscuits are baked, assemble by placing a piece of fried chicken on each biscuit and drizzling with hot honey.
