Total Time: 35 minutes
Servings: 4

Ingredients

  • 4 chicken breasts
  • 80 g plain flour
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1 tsp garlic granules
  • Salt and pepper
  • 3 eggs beaten
  • 150 g panko breadcrumbs
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
Hot honey:
  • 6 tbsp honey
  • 4 tbsp sriracha
  • 25 g butter
  • 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar
To serve:
  • Gherkins sliced (optional)

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 200°C.
  • Slice each chicken breast in half to give 8 thinner fillets, then cut each of those in half again so you have 16 chicken goujons.
  • Mix the flour, paprika, garlic, salt and pepper in a bowl.
  • Set up your coating: flour, beaten egg, and panko.
  • Coat the chicken pieces, pressing the panko on so you get a proper crust.
  • Place onto a large, lined baking tray, drizzle with oil, and bake for 25 minutes until golden and crispy.
  • Meanwhile, add all the sauce ingredients to a pan. Heat gently until melted and glossy.
  • Drizzle the hot honey sauce all over the crispy chicken, then dish them up alongside the sliced gherkins for that authentic Nashville chicken vibe.
