For me, the best way to fry chicken is the fast food way — breaded and deep-fried to perfection. Plus, that creamy and awesome gravy. Deep-fried wings that are coated with spicy sauce are a different story.

Well, this post is dedicated to fried chicken. However, instead of gravy, this features a sweet and sour sauce made from honey and calamansi.

Let’s Cook the Honey Fried Chicken

Notes

• When you season the chicken, make it a little saltier.
• You can also use the batter for chicken strips.
