Hey there, foodies! Let me spill the tea on my absolute favorite fast food recipe thatโll make you feel like youโre dining at a fancy restaurant โ without breaking the bank or spending hours in the kitchen. Trust me, this Crispy Honey Garlic Chicken Sandwich is about to become your new obsession!
Yโall, I discovered this recipe during one of those nights when I was craving something spectacular but didnโt want to change out of my PJs to go anywhere. And honey, let me tell you โ it was a total game-changer!
What youโll need (shopping list, besties!):
โ 2 chicken breasts
โ 2 brioche buns (because weโre fancy like that ๐โโ๏ธ)
โ 4 tablespoons honey
โ 6 cloves garlic (vampires, stay away!)
โ 1 cup panko breadcrumbs
โ 1 cup buttermilk
โ Coleslaw mix
โ Mayo
โ Your favorite hot sauce
โ Salt and pepper to taste
Okay, letโs get cooking! (And no, weโre not calling for takeout this time!)
1. First, butterfly those chicken breasts and soak them in buttermilk for at least 30 minutes. This is your time to scroll through TikTok or catch up on your favorite show โ no judgment here!
1. Mix your panko with some salt, pepper, and if youโre feeling spicy like me, add a dash of paprika.
1. Heat up some oil in a pan (medium-high heat, queens!)
1. Coat your chicken in the panko mixture and fry until golden brown and crispy โ about 4-5 minutes each side.

Assembly time:
1. Toast those brioche buns

3. Place that crispy chicken
4. Drizzle with honey garlic sauce
5. Top with coleslaw
