Oh my goodness, ladies (and gentlemen), let me share this absolutely divine recipe that’s been driving my taste buds crazy lately! As a busy mom who’s always on the go, I’ve perfected this incredible Crispy Honey Garlic Chicken Sandwich that’ll make you forget all about those drive-thru cravings. Trust me, this isn’t your average sandwich – it’s a game-changer!
First things first, let’s gather our ingredients (I know you’re going to love how simple this is):
– 2 chicken breasts, butterflied
– 2 brioche buns
– 3 cloves of garlic, minced
– 2 tablespoons honey
– 1 cup buttermilk
– 1 cup all-purpose flour
– Your favorite seasonings (I’m obsessed with paprika and cayenne!)
– Coleslaw for topping
– Mayo (because duh!)
Now, here’s where the magic happens! And honestly, if I can make this while managing three kids and a hyperactive puppy, you’ve totally got this! 😉
1. Marinate those chicken pieces in buttermilk for at least 30 minutes (I usually do this while catching up on my favorite reality show).
1. Mix your flour with seasonings. Y’all, don’t be shy with those spices! Nobody likes bland chicken, am I right?
1. Heat your oil to 350°F (medium-high heat). While you’re waiting, dredge the chicken in your seasoned flour mixture.
1. Fry until golden brown and crispy (about 4-5 minutes each side). Girl, that sizzle sound is music to my ears!

1. While your chicken is resting (looking all gorgeous and crispy), let’s make that honey garlic sauce. Sauté minced garlic in butter until fragrant, then add honey. Stir until it’s all warm and gooey.
1. Toast those brioche buns (because we’re fancy like that), spread some mayo, add your crispy chicken, drizzle that heavenly honey garlic sauce, and top with coleslaw.
And voilà ! You’ve just made the most Instagram-worthy sandwich that’ll have your friends begging for the recipe! The outside is perfectly crispy, while the inside stays juicy, and that honey garlic sauce? _chef’s kiss_
Pro tip: I like to serve this with sweet potato fries on the side, because why not go all out? You deserve it, queen!
This recipe serves 2, but honestly, you might want to make extra because it disappears FAST. My husband literally tries to steal bites while I’m photographing it for my social media – the struggle is real! 🙄
