Ingredients
For the Chicken:
1 pound chicken pieces (wings, drumsticks, or thighs)
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon black pepper
½ teaspoon paprika
½ teaspoon garlic powder
½ cup buttermilk
Vegetable oil for frying
For the Honey Garlic Glaze:
¼ cup honey
2 tablespoons soy sauce
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
1 tablespoon cornstarch mixed with 2 tablespoons water
For Garnish:
Chopped green onions or chives
Instructions
In a bowl, combine flour, salt, pepper, paprika, and garlic powder.
Dip chicken pieces in buttermilk, then dredge in the seasoned flour, shaking off excess.
Heat oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Fry chicken pieces for 10–12 minutes per side or until golden brown and cooked through.
Transfer cooked chicken to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
In a saucepan, combine honey, soy sauce, garlic, and apple cider vinegar. Bring to a simmer.
Stir in the cornstarch-water mixture and cook until thickened (about 2–3 minutes).
Place chicken on a serving plate and drizzle with the honey garlic glaze.
Garnish with chopped green onions or chives. Serve immediately.
Notes
Add chili flakes or sriracha for a spicier glaze.
For a healthier option, bake the chicken at 400°F for 35–40 minutes, flipping halfway through.
Boneless chicken tenders or breasts work well for quicker cooking.
Substitute gluten-free flour for a gluten-free version.
Serve with rice, mashed potatoes, steamed veggies, or pickled sides for a complete meal.
