Crafting Hot Honey Chicken Biscuits involves several simple steps. Follow these to create this delectable dish:

For the Chicken:

1. Marinate Chicken: Place chicken breasts in a bowl with buttermilk. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
2. Prepare Seasoned Flour: In a shallow dish, combine flour, paprika, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.
3. Heat Oil: In a large skillet, heat enough oil for shallow frying over medium heat.
4. Coat Chicken: Remove chicken from buttermilk, allowing excess to drip off. Dredge in the seasoned flour until fully coated.
5. Fry Chicken: Once the oil is hot, carefully add the chicken to the skillet. Fry for about 6-7 minutes per side or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove and place on a wire rack.

For the Biscuits:

6. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
7. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
8. Add Butter: Cut in cold butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
9. Add Buttermilk: Stir in buttermilk until just combined. Do not overmix.
10. Shape Biscuits: Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface, pat into a 1-inch thick disk. Cut out biscuits using a cutter or a glass, reshaping leftover dough as needed.
11. Bake: Transfer biscuits to the baking sheet and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown.

For the Hot Honey Sauce:

12. Combine Ingredients: In a small saucepan, combine honey and crushed red pepper flakes. Heat gently over low heat until warm, stirring to combine.

Assemble the Dish:

13. Assemble Chicken Biscuits: Slice the freshly baked biscuits in half. Place one piece of fried chicken in each biscuit.
14. Drizzle with Hot Honey: Generously drizzle the hot honey sauce over the chicken and top with the other half of the biscuit.

By following these simple steps, you’ll create a dish that’s both flavorful and comforting!
