Preperation

1. Marinating the chicken

In a bowl, mix the garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. Add the chicken, stir well, and let marinate for at least 30 minutes (preferably 2 hours) in the fridge.

2. Preparing the breading

In a bowl, mix the flour with the cornstarch. Crack the eggs and beat them well in a separate bowl. Place the Japanese panko breadcrumbs in another bowl.

Remove the chicken from the marinade and let it drain briefly. Dip each piece first in the beaten eggs, then in the flour mixture, and finally coat it with the panko. Press firmly for a thick, airy, and crispy layer.

3. Frying the chicken

Heat a pan with 3-4 cm of oil to 175°C. Fry the chicken in batches for 3-4 minutes per side until golden brown and crispy. Drain on a rack or paper towels.

4. Finishing touches

Generously drizzle the fried chicken with Little b's Hot Honey and serve immediately.

Serving

Serve with extra hot honey drizzle, a fresh salad, rice, or roasted vegetables.
