Ingredients
  • 1.5 sticks cold butter
  • 2-3 cups all-purpose flour (for biscuits)
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 large boneless, skinless chicken breast
  • 1.5 cups buttermilk
  • A few tablespoons hot sauce
  • 1-2 teaspoons paprika
  • 1-2 teaspoons garlic powder
  • 1-2 teaspoons salt
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour (for dredging)
  • Vegetable or peanut oil (for frying)
  • 1/2 cup honey
  • A few tablespoons butter (for honey butter)
  • 1 sprig fresh rosemary
Method
  1. 1Cube cold butter and pulse with initial all-purpose flour in a food processor until crumbly.
  2. 2Transfer the crumbly mixture to a metal mixing bowl, add milk, and mix by hand until a shaggy dough forms.
  3. 3Turn out the dough onto a floured surface, briefly knead or fold, roll flat, and cut out biscuit rounds using a cutter.
  4. 4Place biscuit rounds on a parchment-lined baking sheet, brush tops with liquid, and bake until golden brown.
  5. 5Flatten the chicken breast, then marinate it in buttermilk, hot sauce, and a blend of spices (paprika, garlic powder, salt).
  6. 6Dredge the marinated chicken thoroughly in all-purpose flour, ensuring it is fully coated.
  7. 7Deep fry the coated chicken in sufficient hot frying oil until it is crispy and cooked through.
  8. 8In a small saucepan, heat honey, cubed butter, and a sprig of fresh herb (like rosemary) until the butter is melted and the mixture is well combined.
  9. 9Assemble the dish by splitting the baked biscuits, placing a piece of fried chicken inside, and drizzling generously with the prepared honey butter.
