Juicy chicken pieces baked to a golden crunch, then glazed with a spicy-sweet hot honey sauce. A bold, crowd-pleasing dish made entirely in the oven.

Ingredients

Scale

  • 2 lbs boneless, skinless chicken thighs or breasts

  • 1 cup buttermilk

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour

  • 1 tsp paprika

  • 1 tsp garlic powder

  • ½ tsp cayenne pepper

  • Salt and pepper

  • 2 eggs

  • 1 cup panko breadcrumbs

  • 1 cup crushed cornflakes

Hot Honey Glaze:

  • ½ cup honey

  • 2 tbsp hot sauce

  • 1 tbsp butter

  • ½ tsp red pepper flakes

  • 1 tsp apple cider vinegar

Instructions

  • Soak chicken in buttermilk and a pinch of salt for 30 minutes or overnight.

  • Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Place a wire rack over a baking sheet.

  • Mix flour, paprika, garlic powder, cayenne, salt, and pepper in one bowl. Beat eggs in a second. In a third bowl, combine panko and cornflakes.

  • Dredge chicken in flour, dip in egg, then coat in the breadcrumb mixture. Place on wire rack.

  • Lightly spray with oil and bake for 20–25 minutes, turning once.

  • While chicken bakes, make the glaze: melt butter, then stir in honey, hot sauce, pepper flakes, and vinegar. Simmer for 3–4 minutes.

  • Brush glaze over cooked chicken. Optional: return to oven for 2–3 minutes to set.

  • Serve warm with your favorite sides or extra glaze for dipping.
