Crispy Honey-BBQ Chicken Wings the Whole Family Will Fight Over | Easy chicken breast bites

Описание: I’m the oldest of 19 and my younger siblings love to come over and hang out. Honey bbq chicken wings are one of their favorite meals (or snacks) so when my brothers came over the other night we decided to do make these together.

I took plain chicken breasts and turned them into crispy, crunchy BBQ honey wings. With my youngest brothers in the kitchen it felt like a throwback to our loud, messy childhood dinners… only this time, we knew how to cook a bit better. Watching this I realize things got so crazy I forgot to finish my sentences a couple of times but we had alot of fun!

This isn’t just another wing video, this is how you take affordable chicken breasts, (no bones for kids to choke on or leave on the counters and floor) and turn them into something that crunches like fried takeout, but stays simple enough for any home cook. Just a smart 3-step breading, some buttermilk, Panko, parmesan, and that sticky BBQ honey sauce that pulls it all together!

INGREDIENTS:
For the chicken:
• 3 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (cut into 1” pieces)
• ¾ cup buttermilk
• ½ tsp salt
• ½ tsp black pepper
• ½ tsp smoked paprika
• ½ tsp garlic powder
• ½ tsp onion powder
• Optional: a dash of hot sauce

3-station breading setup:
Station 1, Seasoned Flour
• ½ cup all-purpose flour
• ½ tsp salt
• ¼ tsp black pepper
• ½ tsp smoked paprika
• ½ tsp garlic powder
• ½ tsp onion powder
• ½ tsp Italian seasoning

Station 2, Buttermilk Dip
• Reserved marinade or fresh buttermilk
• Optional: 1 egg for extra binding

Station 3, Crunch Coating
• 1½ cups Panko breadcrumbs
• ½ cup grated Parmesan
• ½ tsp garlic powder
• ½ tsp onion powder
• ½ tsp Italian seasoning
• Optional: 1 Tbsp olive oil if baking

BBQ Honey Sauce:
• My brothers like Buffalo Wild Wings bbq honey sauce. I mix 2 cups, add 2 Tbsp of butter, 2-4 Tbsp honey while heating on medium low heat until simmering. You can mix any of your favorite bbq sauces with honey to taste, add butter and you have a winner!

INSTRUCTIONS
1. Marinate the chicken in buttermilk, salt, pepper, and seasonings
2. Set up your breading stations in 3 shallow bowls. Dredge each chicken piece in flour → buttermilk → Panko-parm mix, pressing firmly to coat.
3. Let breaded chicken rest 10–15 minutes before cooking for better crisp.
4. Cook your way:
• Air Fryer: 380°F for 16–18 minutes, flip halfway
• Oven: 425°F for 20–25 minutes, flip halfway, broil last 1–2 mins if needed
• Pan Fry: 350°F oil, fry 5–6 minutes until golden and 165°F inside
5. Toss or drizzle with BBQ honey sauce while hot. Serve immediately.
