Ever since our trip to Nashville in the Summer, I’ve been obsessed with hot chicken. Chris and I ate so much at one sitting at Hattie B’s that we could barely move for the rest of the day! Although they didn’t have hot honey sauce on the the menu there, I’ve been making hot honey sauce at home for ages! It’s such a good drizzle sauce for chicken and salmon that it’s difficult NOT to serve it up with every meal! So this is my version – crispy chicken, baked in the oven so we don’t have to get oil splashed everywhere, and easy hot honey sauce. The chicken is coated in crushed cornflakes, which, if you haven’t tried before, works brilliantly, to get that similar crunch you would get if you fried the chicken.

Why coat the chicken in cornflakes?

The crushed up cornflakes provides the perfect crunch you’d get with fried chicken, the perfect golden colour (which is difficult to get if you’re using panko) and extra depth of flavour.
