Crispy Fried Chicken with Honey Sauce
- add review
- #14292
Chicken pieces are first marinated to give them more flavor and make them more tender. Then, they are dipped in a seasoned flour mixture that gives them a delicious and crisp coating when frying. Serve with a cinnamon honey sauce for dipping.

ingredients
2 whole fryer chickens (3 to 3 1/2 lbs a piece )
Marinade
1 gallon water
6 tablespoons chicken bouillon granules
2 tablespoons salt
2 teaspoons black pepper
2 teaspoons crushed red pepper flakes
1 tablespoon liquid smoke
Seasoned Flour
6 cups flour, more as needed
6 tablespoons Montreal steak seasoning
2 teaspoons black pepper
1 teaspoon paprika
2 teaspoons salt
1 large bowl cold water
peanut oil or vegetable shortening to fry
Honey Sauce
12 ounces honey
6 cinnamon sticks
gratings of white pepper to taste
directions
Heat marinade ingredients in deep pot and mix all well. Cool to room temperature and add cut up chicken parts so all parts are covered with liquid. Refrigerator the night before frying the chicken.
The next day, drain chicken and rinse well.
Combine seasoned flour ingredients in a large bowl.
Heat about 3/4 inch of oil in an electric skillet to 360 degrees F.
Dip chicken in the flour, shake off excess flour, then dip in the cold water, then back into the flour, repeating this several times.
Place chicken pieces in hot oil (do not crowd) and fry until golden on each side. This may take 7 to 10 minutes on each side. Drain chicken on brown paper bags, or paper toweling and keep warm in a 200 degrees F oven until all the chicken is fried.
Before serving make sauce: Heat honey on low heat (to warm and liquefy a bit) in a saucepan with cinnamon sticks and pepper to taste. Tell guests to ladle some honey over the hot chicken if desired.
cook's notes
I combined several fried chicken recipes to produce an ultra moist, flavorful and tender chicken that also is very crispy. Served for my daughter's 23 birthday along with homemade biscuits, lemon and garlic broccoli, saffron rice and potato, macaroni tuna salad plus strawberry layer cake: Oh and pina coladas !

This iconic whiskey is a "Jack of all trades" when it comes to cooking. Toss it in some pasta, as a savory dipping sauce, and even bake it into something sweet.
It may look like a sad little package shoved in the back of your freezer, but frozen spinach actually has a lot of culinary uses (and some may surprise you).
