5
Season both sides of chicken pieces with a fair amount of salt and pepper then working with one pieces at a time dredge all sides in flour mixture, shake off excess flour.
Salt (and black pepper)Tbsp unsalted butter, (diced into pieces)1 1/2Salt
6
Transfer to egg and coat all sides in egg, then transfer to crushed cornflakes and coat both sides (while scooping some cornflakes over top and pressing so they stick well and there's a generous, even coating on both sides).
7
Transfer coated chicken strip to cooling rack and repeat process with remaining chicken pieces.
8
Bake in preheated oven until chicken is baked through (165°F in center of thickest portion), about 15 to ⏱️ 20 minutes (if you find chicken is over-browning near the end just lay a sheet of foil over top, don't seal).
9
In a microwave safe bowl heat together honey with butter (about 30+ seconds) until butter is nearly melted, remove and add sriracha, season with salt to taste and stir.
Salt (and black pepper)Tbsp unsalted butter, (diced into pieces)1 1/2Salt
10
Spoon hot honey mixture over chicken and serve right away. For the crispiest option you can serve the hot honey sauce as a dip, though you may want to double the amount.
