Servings: persons

4 boneless skinless chicken thighs
8 slider buns
6 cups canola oil
1 egg
1/2 cup buttermilk
1 cup flour
1 tablespoon salt
2 teaspoons black pepper
1 tablespoon hot sauce
2 tablespoons cayenne
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon chili powder
2 teaspoons honey

1
Prepare two bowls to coat chicken. In the first bowl, place egg, milk and hot sauce and mix well. Into the second bowl, combine flour, salt & black pepper.
2
Cut each chicken thigh half and pat them dry with a paper towel.
3
In a dutch oven or heavy cast iron skillet, heat oil until it reaches 325 degrees fahrenheit.
4
Take a piece of chicken and coat it in flour, then egg mix, then back into the flour. Repeat until all pieces are coated.
5
When oil is up to temp, fry a few pieces at a time, not overcrowding the pan. Allow oil to return to temperature before adding the next batch. Fry each piece until golden brown, with internal temperature measuring 165 degrees fahrenheit (about 6 minutes per side). As you remove the pieces, place them on a rack over foil to cool.
6
In another bowl, combine cayenne, chili powder, garlic, paprika and honey along with 1/2 cup of the frying oil. Stir well, then brush this oil solution over the fried chicken pieces.
7
Serve on slider buns with thick cut pickles.
