Ingredients
- 1.5 lbs boneless skinless chicken breast
- 2 cups cornflakes
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 large eggs
- 1/4 cup hot sauce (for egg wash)
- 1/2 cup honey
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter
- 1 tbsp red spices (chili powder/paprika/cayenne)
- 2 tbsp hot sauce (for sauce)
- 1 tsp sea salt
- 1 tbsp assorted seasonings (garlic powder, onion powder, etc.)

- 4Arrange the breaded chicken pieces on a baking sheet and drizzle with melted butter.
- 5Bake the chicken in the oven until golden-brown and crisp.
- 6While chicken bakes, combine honey, butter, and red spices in a small pot on the stove; stir until butter melts and spices are incorporated.

- 8Once baked, generously drizzle the warm spicy honey butter sauce over each chicken piece.
- 9Garnish with flaky sea salt and fresh thyme sprigs before serving.
