Ingredients

Main Ingredients

  • Chicken Breast (about 1 lb)
  • Honey (1/4 cup)
  • Biscuits (8 pre-made biscuits or homemade equivalent)
  • Butter (2 tablespoons, softened or melted)

Seasonings & Flavorings

  • Garlic Powder (1 teaspoon)
  • Salt (1/2 teaspoon, or to taste)
  • Black Pepper (1/4 teaspoon, or to taste)
  • Optional Hot Sauce (1-2 teaspoons for spicy version)

Optional Toppings

  • Shredded Cheddar or Mozzarella Cheese (1/2 cup)
  • Fresh Rosemary or Thyme (1 tablespoon, chopped)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Chicken: Cook the chicken breast by baking, grilling, or pan-frying until thoroughly cooked and tender. Once done, slice or shred the chicken into bite-sized pieces for easy assembly.
  2. Mix the Honey Glaze: In a small bowl, combine honey, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. For a spicier option, add hot sauce. This mixture will create a sweet and savory glaze for the chicken.
  3. Coat the Chicken: Toss the shredded chicken in the honey glaze until all pieces are evenly coated, ensuring every bite is flavorful and balanced.
  4. Prepare the Biscuits: If using store-bought biscuits, slice each biscuit horizontally in half. For homemade biscuits, bake them according to your recipe until golden and flaky.
  5. Assemble the Biscuits: Layer the glazed chicken inside each biscuit half. Add softened or melted butter to the biscuit edges and optional toppings such as shredded cheese or fresh herbs for added flavor.
  6. Serve and Enjoy: Serve the Honey Chicken Biscuits warm to enjoy the flaky biscuit texture and tender chicken. These can be eaten on their own or paired with your favorite sides.

Notes

  • Use fresh, high-quality honey for enhanced flavor and aroma.
  • Do not overcook the chicken to keep it juicy and tender.
  • Warm the biscuits before assembling for best texture and comfort.
  • Taste and adjust the honey glaze sweetness before coating the chicken.
  • Add texture with optional chopped nuts or crispy bacon if desired.
