Recipe 

Hot Honey Bam Bam
Makes up to 8 Sandwiches
 

8 boneless skinless chicken thighs, trimmed as need
Vegetable oil, for frying
Potato rolls (such as Martin’s), lightly toasted
Sliced pickles, for serving
Pickle Brine:
3/4 cup pickle juice (I used Best Maid)
3/4 cup buttermilk
2 tablespoons Creole (or whole grain) mustard
 2 teaspoons Chica Licka Bam Bam
Flour dredge:
1⅔ cup all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons Chica Licka Bam Bam, plus more for seasoning chicken
Buttermilk wash:
2 large eggs
¾ cup buttermilk
1 tablespoon hot sauce (such as Crystal)
Hot honey drizzle:
4 tablespoons melted butter
2 tablespoons honey
2 tablespoon hot sauce (such as Crystal)
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
Pinch cayenne (or more as desired for heat)
Whisk together the pickle juice, buttermilk, Creole mustard and Chica Licka Bam Bam in a medium bowl. Add the chicken thighs, gently toss to blend.
 

When you’re ready to cook, remove the chicken thighs from the brine, pat dry, and lightly season with Chica Licka Bam Bam.
 

 In a shallow bowl, whisk together the flour and Chica Licka Bam Bam. In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, buttermilk, and hot sauce.
 

Heat ½ inch depth of vegetable oil in a large skillet to 325 F, and heat the oven to 250 F.  Make the Hot Honey Drizzle in a small saucepan or microwavable bowl. Gently heat the mixture until the butter melts, stirring to combine; set aside.
 

When the oil is at temperature, fry the chicken. Dip a chicken thigh in the flour dredge, shaking off excess, then submerge it in the buttermilk wash, then give it a second spin in the dredge, coating completely. Repeat with remaining thighs.
 

Fry three to four chicken thighs at a time until they’re crisp and deeply golden brown, about 4 minutes per side. Use tongs to transfer the hot thighs to the cooling rack, place the baking sheet in the oven, and repeat with remaining chicken.
