Ingredients
For the Hot Honey:
- ¼ cup honey
- 2 teaspoons hot sauce
Instructions
- In a large bowl, whisk together flour, cayenne, garlic powder, salt, pepper, and beer. Mixture should be thick but pourable. Let mixture rest for 20 minutes.
- If using whole chicken breasts, carefully slice each breast in half horizontally. If necessary, pound to an even thickness. The more uniform the chicken cutlets, the more evenly they will fry. The thinner the chicken cutlets, the quicker they will fry.
- Heat about ¾ inch of oil in a heavy bottomed skillet to 325°F. Dip chicken in beer batter mixture to fully coat and allow excess to drip off. Carefully place each battered piece into the skillet. Do not over crowd the pan. Fry in batches if necessary.
- Fry for 12-15 minutes, turning once until chicken is cooked through. Transfer to a baking sheet lined with a cooling rack to allow excess oil to drip off.
- To prepare the hot honey, whisk together honey and hot sauce.
- Brush each fried chicken cutlet with a generous amount of hot honey. Serve on your favorite buns.
