Method
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or silicone mat.
- Pat chicken dry. In separate shallow bowls, prepare: flour mixture with spices, beaten eggs, and panko breadcrumbs. Dredge chicken in flour, dip in egg, then coat with panko. Press to stick.
- Place coated chicken on baking sheet. Spray lightly with cooking spray or drizzle with olive oil. Bake 25–30 minutes until golden and internal temp is 165°F/74°C.
- Meanwhile, make hot honey sauce: In saucepan, heat honey, hot sauce, butter, and red pepper flakes until smooth. Add vinegar or lemon juice if using.
- Drizzle or toss chicken with hot honey sauce once baked.
- Garnish with parsley, sesame seeds, or peanuts. Serve hot with sides.
Notes
Adjust the spice level by varying the amount of hot sauce and red pepper flakes. For even more crunch, use an air fryer instead of baking. Pairs well with roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or a crisp side salad.
