Instructions
 

Biscuits

  • To make your biscuits, combine dry ingredients in a bowl and whisk together. Next, grate in your stick of butter and use your hands to gently incorporate the butter into the flour mixture. Once crumbs form, slowly add your milk to the mixture. Mix with a wooden spoon until a dough begins to form. It will be slightly sticky, but it’s ok.
  • Add some flour to your surface and dump your dough onto it. Knead into a ball and then flatten using your hands. Fold in the bottom half closest to you to the top. Then fold from left to right. Flatten out again and then repeat the process 5-6 times. This is how you form layers. Roll out one more time and use a biscuit cutter to start cutting out your biscuit rounds.
  • Place biscuits on a parchment-lined baking sheet and brush with egg wash. Bake at 375 for 20-22 minutes or until golden brown and fluffy. Remove and brush with butter.
  • Honey Butter Chicken
  • Start by mixing all of your base ingredients in a large bowl to form the wet batter. Allow the chicken thighs to sit in this for a minute so they are completely coated. In a separate bowl, add 2 cups flour and 1/2 cup cornstarch. Add your seasonings and mix to combine. Remove your chicken thighs from the wet batter and place them into a dry flour dredge. Coat completely and fry at 350 for 6-8 minutes or until golden brown and they reach an internal temp of 165 degrees F.
  • Mix 3/4 cup honey with 1/4 cup of melted unsalted butter in a bowl. Top your biscuits with the honey butter, split, and add your chicken in the middle. Serve and ENJOY!
