Ingredients

  • 6 Robinhood Meetinghouse Cream Cheese Biscuits

  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken thighs

  • 2 cups of buttermilk

  • salt and pepper

  • 2 cups AP flour

  • 1 tsp cornstarch

  • canola oil or peanut oil for frying

  • eggs for frying (I wanted a drippy fried egg on my sandwich, you don't have to have one!)

  • sriracha (to taste)

  • honey (to taste)

  • butter (to taste)

  • your favorite cheese

 
 

Recipe

Cut chicken thighs into 2 pieces, so they'll cook evenly and fit on a biscuit.  Season liberally with salt and pepper and cover in a bowl with buttermilk. Refrigerate for at least 15 minutes, the longer the better (overnight is preferable).  

When you're ready to cook, preheat your oven to 350 degrees. Bake biscuits for about 25-30 minutes on a parchment lined pan, you will need a good crust on the biscuits to hold the sandwich together.

While biscuits are baking, heat up your frying oil. A dutch oven is best, you can also use a heavy cast iron pan. Pour oil so it is 1" deep in pan and heat to 350 degrees on a candy thermometer. Mix together flour, cornstarch and salt and pepper into a dredging mix. Dredge soaked chicken pieces into the flour mixture, making sure to coat well. Place pieces gently into oil.  Fry each piece for about 8 minutes, flipping over half way through. Place chicken on a paper towel lined plate.   

To build the sandwich:

Warm sriracha, honey and butter in microwave. Split biscuits and spread with honey mixture to taste. Stack with a piece of chicken, an over easy fried egg and as much cheese as you like. For extra heat: completely submerge the piece of fried chicken in the sriracha mixture. Enjoy!
