Ingredients
- Boneless, Skinless Chicken Thighs
- Buttermilk
- Flaky Canned Biscuits
- Store-Bought Hot Honey
- All-Purpose Flour
- Cornstarch
- Salt
- Black Pepper
- Paprika
- Garlic Powder
- Onion Powder
- Neutral Oil (Peanut, Canola, or Vegetable)
- Pickle Slices (optional)

Instructions
- Step 1: Prep the Chicken – Cut the chicken into pieces roughly the size of your biscuit. Soak the chicken in buttermilk with a pinch of salt and pepper for at least 30 minutes, or overnight.
- Step 2: Bake the Biscuits – Preheat the oven according to the biscuit package instructions. Arrange the biscuits on a baking sheet and bake until golden brown and fluffy, about 12-15 minutes.
- Step 3: Prepare the Dredging Station – In a shallow dish, combine all-purpose flour, cornstarch, salt, black pepper, paprika, garlic powder, and onion powder. Mix well.
- Step 4: Dredge the Chicken – Remove chicken from buttermilk, let excess drip off, and coat in the flour mixture. Place on a wire rack to set.
- Step 5: Fry the Chicken – Heat neutral oil in a skillet to 350°F (175°C). Fry chicken pieces in batches for 4-6 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through. Drain on a wire rack.
- Step 6: Assemble Your Biscuits – Slice each biscuit in half, optionally spread butter on the cut sides, add a piece of chicken, and drizzle with hot honey. Optionally add pickle slices before placing the biscuit top on.
