Ingredients

6 buttermilk biscuits

US Customary - Metric

Instructions

In a small pot on the stove, melt the butter.
1/4 cup butter
Once the butter's melted add the honey, garlic, and hot sauce. Let the mixture simmer for 2-3 minutes.
3 tbsp honey, pinch garlic powder, 1 1/2 tsp hot sauce
Mix the bit of cornstarch and splash of water in a tiny bowl with a fork until evenly combined. Pour this mixture into the glaze.
1/4 tsp cornstarch
Let the glaze simmer another minute or two until glossy and thickened. If it coats the back of a spoon, it's thickened enough. Remove from heat and set aside.
Add the chicken tenders to a large mixing bowl. Pour the sweet & spicy glaze over top. Gently toss to coat, just until all the tenders are lightly coated.

Notes

Use frozen or premade chicken tenders to cut down on the prep time.
If you want that biscuit flavor without the work use store bought biscuits, or even pick up a batch from your favorite fast food joint. However you can use these homemade copycat KFC biscuits, if you prefer a from scratch version.
You can adjust the heat level by adjusting the amount of hot sauce you use. Less hot sauce for less heat.
Use a good quality hot sauce for the glaze. I like Frank's Red Hot, but use your favorite brand since this will be a predominant flavor that shines through.
Less garlic will also give it a more mild flavor.
For an Asian inspired sticky chicken spin, sub Sriracha for the hot sauce.
