The spicy coating for this chicken is one I’ve put together over the years.

I whisped an egg, 3 tablespoons of honey and dipped the chicken in the mixture before putting it into the flour mixture to better coat the pieces. Then I put the pieces into my deep fryer 365% till browned. Then I put the pieces into a baking pan that I put a wire rack in, covered it and cooked it to 160%. I then uncovered it to crispen it a little. It was wonderful! Next time I'm going to coat it with 1000 Island dressing before I coat it with the flour. There is so much you can do with these spices in this recipe, I used the spice mixture without the flour in a shaker for a rub for chicken breasts too.
