Ingredients

Units Scale

For the Chicken:

  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper

For the Hot Honey Glaze:

  • 1/2 cup honey
  • 2 tablespoons hot sauce
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon paprika

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Chicken: Preheat the oven to 400°F. In a shallow dish, mix the flour, salt, and pepper. Dredge each chicken breast in the flour mixture, shaking off any excess.
  2. Cook the Chicken: Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the chicken for 4-5 minutes per side, until golden brown. Transfer the chicken to a baking dish.
  3. Make the Hot Honey Glaze: In a small saucepan, combine the honey, hot sauce, butter, vinegar, garlic powder, and paprika. Cook over medium heat until the mixture is smooth and bubbly.
  4. Glaze the Chicken: Pour the hot honey glaze over the cooked chicken, making sure to coat each piece evenly.
  5. Bake: Bake the chicken in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the glaze is sticky and the chicken is cooked through.
  6. Serve: Remove from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy your hot honey chicken hot!

Notes

  • You can adjust the amount of hot sauce in the glaze to suit your spice preference.
  • For extra crispy chicken, you can double coat the chicken in the flour mixture before frying.
