Honey Butter Chicken Biscuits

 

Have you seen the price of fast food lately? Shocking! I am not one who generally eats fast food so wasn’t aware of the huge increase in prices. Recently someone posted the receipt for the purchase of a burger and fries from Five Guys online, and it was nearly $27. For a burger and fries! That’s why I have pretty much decided to make my own fast food at home, even though it’s not so fast when you do it yourself.

 

These took a lot more time than I had anticipated. They are simple to make, but it takes a little time to set up a dipping station, bake biscuits (I’m not overly fond of the refrigerated biscuits, so I made my own), make the honey butter, and get oil to heat up to 350°. That said, these were really delicious. I used one chicken breast, so I ended up with four little chicken patties. I had two for lunch one day with the biscuits, and the other two I had the next day sliced on top of a salad. They were still crispy and delicious even after spending a night in the fridge. Because the breading is Panko, I found it separated a bit from the seasoning so next time I’m going to sprinkle some Slap Ya Mama on top of the chicken as well as using it in the breading.
