Fried Chicken Biscuits With Hot Honey Butter Recipes

FRIED CHICKEN BISCUITS WITH HOT HONEY BUTTER

Steps:

• Prepare the biscuits: In a bowl, use a fork to mix the flour, baking powder, sugar and salt. Add butter and use the fork to mash it into the flour until the mixture resembles large, lumpy crumbs. Stir in milk until a dough comes together.
• Flour your hands, then gently gather and knead the dough in the bowl for 2 to 3 minutes, or until it springs back slightly to the touch. (If the dough is sticky, sprinkle additional flour as needed.) Cover bowl loosely with plastic wrap and rest dough in fridge for half hour.
• Heat oven to 425 degrees. On a lightly floured surface, use a floured rolling pin to roll the dough to 1 to 1 1/2 inch thickness. Use a floured knife or round cutter to cut 6 biscuits, about 3 1/2 inches wide. Reroll the scraps and cut again as needed.
• Place biscuits on a baking sheet and bake for 15 to 20 minutes, or until they have puffed up and the tops are slightly golden. Let cool completely on a wired rack at room temperature. Transfer to an airtight container if not using until the next day.
• Prepare the chicken: Trim excess fat and any membranes from the meat, then lightly hammer the thickest parts of the thighs with a mallet or rolling pin. Season each side with salt.
• Mix flour, cayenne and salt in one wide bowl. Beat eggs in a second wide bowl, and place panko in a third. Dip each chicken thigh in flour, coating it all over and patting off the excess, then in egg, allowing extra egg to drip off, then in panko, making sure each thigh is entirely coated in bread crumbs, and using your hands to press loose crumbs into any places where they look scarce.
• In a large, heavy bottomed skillet, pour in oil to a 2-inch depth and heat to 350 degrees. Fry 2 thighs at a time, flipping them over every two minutes or so, until golden brown and crisp all over, about 8 minutes total. Transfer to a wire rack set over a paper towel-lined sheet pan and season lightly with salt. Let cool entirely at room temperature, at least 1 hour. At this point, you can assemble the sandwiches or transfer the rack to the fridge and leave the chicken uncovered overnight.
• Assemble the sandwiches: When both the chicken and biscuits have cooled (or the next day), mix together soft butter, honey and hot sauce until smooth. Cut open cooled biscuits, smear each cut side with honey butter, and sandwich with a piece of chicken. If traveling, loosely wrap each sandwich in a piece of parchment paper and pack side by side in a hard container, in a single layer, so the sandwiches aren't crushed. Serve with additional hot sauce and pickles on the side.

FRIED CHICKEN BISCUITS

Steps:

• For chicken cutlets:
• Combine buttermilk, hot sauce, salt, black pepper, and cayenne in a resealable plastic bag; add chicken. Seal bag, turn to coat, and chill at least 3 hours.
• DO AHEAD: Chicken can be marinated 8 hours ahead. Keep chilled.
• For honey butter and assembly:
• Mix butter, honey, and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a small bowl until smooth; set honey butter aside.
• Pour oil into a large skillet, preferably cast iron, to a depth of 1/2" and heat over medium-high heat until oil bubbles immediately when a little panko is added.
• Meanwhile, place panko in a shallow bowl. Remove chicken from marinade; season with salt and pepper. Dredge chicken in panko, shaking off excess. Working in 2 batches and maintaining oil temperature, fry chicken until golden brown, crisp, and cooked through, about 3 minutes per side. Transfer chicken to a paper towel-lined baking sheet to drain.
• Split biscuits and spread each side with 1 tablespoon reserved honey butter. Build sandwiches with biscuits, chicken, and hot sauce.

FRIED CHICKEN SANDWICH WITH HOT HONEY

Steps:

• Fried Chicken:.
• In a shallow baking dish whisk together flour, paprika, salt and pepper.
• Working in batches place the chicken in the flour mixture, turning to coat thoroughly. Pour the buttermilk in another shallow baking dish. Coat the chicken in the buttermilk then place back into the flour to coat one more time. Place the chicken on a wire baking rack over a sheet tray until ready to fry.
• In a cast iron pan add enough oil to fill about 2 inches up the sides of the pan. Heat the oil to 350 degrees over medium high heat. Fry the chicken in batches turning once until golden brown and cooked through. The breast should be done in about 3-4 minutes per side. Remove to a paper towel lined plate and season with salt.
• Build the sandwiches by placing the fried chicken on a bun and topping with the slaw, hot honey and pickles.
• Slaw: Combine all ingredients in a large bowl and toss to coat. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
• Hot Honey:.
• In a small saucepan combine ingredients. Bring the mixture to a simmer over medium heat. Simmer for 2-3 minutes then remove from heat and allow to cool to room temperature.

FRIED BISCUITS

Steps:

• Add oil to a deep saucepan, dutch oven or small pot. Heat to 375 °F.
• If coating with cinnamon and sugar (optional), mix together cinnamon sugar in a small bowl. Set aside.
• Remove biscuits from container. Using kitchen scissors or a knife, cut each biscuit into 4 sections. For each section, roll into a ball and then slightly flatten to a disc shape.
• Drop each biscuit "disc" into the hot oil. Do not overlap. Fry for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until light golden brown.
• Using a slotted spoon, remove fried biscuits from oil and transfer to a paper towel lined plate to drain. If using cinnamon and sugar, transfer fried biscuits to bowl of cinnamon sugar. Flip once to cover biscuits on both sides with sugar mixture. Cool slightly before serving.
• Serve plain or with apple butter, cinnamon butter, honey, honey butter or melted chocolate.

HONEY BUTTER CHICKEN BISCUIT

Steps:

• For the chicken: Trim the thighs of any excess fat or cartilage. Brine in the pickle juice at least 2 hours and up to overnight. Remove the chicken from the brine and submerge in the buttermilk. Let soak in the buttermilk for 30 minutes to an hour.
• For the dredge: Whisk together the potato starch, all-purpose flour, rice flour, salt, paprika, garlic powder, black pepper and bullet chile in a bowl and set aside.
• Heat the oil in a large, heavy-bottomed pot to 350 degrees F.
• Shake the excess buttermilk off the chicken and coat with the dredge. Press the dredge into the chicken as much as you can. Shake off the excess and fry for about 7 minutes until golden brown and crispy.
• For the honey butter. Combine the honey and butter in a small pot and bring to a boil. As the butter melts, whisk so that everything comes together and emulsifies. Set aside.
• For the black pepper biscuits: Combine the flour, pepper, baking powder and salt into a large bowl. Freeze the dry ingredients in the bowl and freeze the butter.
• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Grate the butter into the frozen bowl of dry mix using a cheese grater. (If you are not using it right away, store it at this stage in the freezer.) Combine the milk and sour cream into the bowl and mix with your hands until everything comes together. It is ok if it's lumpy; you don't want to overwork your dough.
• Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and spray it with nonstick cooking spray. Using an ice cream scoop, scoop out tennis ball-size scoops onto the baking sheet.
• Bake for 20 minutes, then rotate the baking sheet, reduce the temperature to 350 degrees F and bake until a nice pale gold, another 15 minutes. Brush with the honey butter while still hot and let cool down.
• For the chili honey butter: In a small pot, melt the butter and honey together. Whisk them together, then add the chili crisp, jalapeno juice and mushroom seasoning. Bring everything to a boil and set aside. Make sure to stir up before serving so that everything is well mixed.
• For the honey butter chicken biscuit: To assemble, split the biscuits in half, and place 2 slices of cheese on the top half of each biscuit. Toast until the biscuit is warm and the cheese is melted. Top the lower half of each biscuit with a fried chicken thigh and then pour as much chili honey butter as you can handle over the top of the chicken. You can also toss the chicken in a bowl with the honey butter first. Then put on the top half of each biscuit and enjoy.
