Steps
- 1. Preheat the oven to 425° F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- 2. Beat the eggs in a large bowl, add the chicken and toss well to coat. In a separate bowl combine the corn flake crumbs, flour, paprika, and a pinch each of salt and pepper.
- 3. Dredge the chicken through the crumbs, covering fully. Place on the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 15-20 minutes, turning halfway through cooking.
- 4. Just before the chicken is done cooking, make the sauce. In a small skillet, melt together the butter and garlic over medium heat. Cook until the butter is browning and the garlic turns golden. Remove from the heat. Whisk in the honey, cayenne, chili powder, paprika, onion powder, and chili flakes.
- 5. Drizzle or pour the warm sauce over the chicken, tossing to coat. The sauce thickens quickly, so be sure to use while still warm. Serve um up!
Notes
- Sauce: if you like extra sauce for drizzling/dipping, double the hot honey recipe.
