Hot Honey Chicken Sandwich

This hot honey chicken sandwich has crispy chicken coated with spicy honey, sandwiched between fluffy burger buns with pickles and a cool and crunchy homemade coleslaw.

📝 Ingredients

• 4 frozen chicken breast filets (see note)
• 2 cups Coleslaw
• Pickle slices
• 4 hamburger buns
• 1/2 cup honey
• 1 Tablespoon crushed red pepper flakes
• 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
• 1/2 teaspoon cider vinegar

👨‍🍳 Instructions

1. 1Preheat oven or air fryer and cook chicken according to package directions.
2. 2Meanwhile mix together honey, crushed red pepper and cayenne pepper in a small saucepan. Bring to a simmer and cook over low heat for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
3. 3Remove from heat and stir in vinegar.
4. 4Pour through a strainer into a glass jar. This step is optional, if you like things extra hot you can omit this step and let the peppers continue to infuse the honey. It will also give you texture when you use it later.
5. 5Once the chicken is cooked, brush each side generously with honey.
6. 6Assemble sandwiches by topping each bun with a piece of coated chicken, about ½ cup of coleslaw and sliced pickles. Drizzle with more hot honey if desired.
