Creating Honey Butter Chicken is easy when you follow these straightforward steps:

1. Marinate Chicken: In a bowl, add chicken thighs and buttermilk. Allow the chicken to marinate for at least 20 minutes (or overnight for best results).
2. Prepare Dry Mixture: In another bowl, mix together flour, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper.
3. Heat Oil: In a large skillet, heat vegetable oil over medium heat until hot (about 350°F or 175°C).
4. Coat Chicken: Remove chicken from buttermilk and shake off excess. Dredge each thigh in the flour mixture until fully coated.
5. Fry Chicken: Carefully place coated chicken pieces into the hot oil. Fry until golden brown and cooked through, about 6-7 minutes per side.
6. Drain Chicken: Remove cooked chicken from the skillet and place on a wire rack or paper towels to drain excess oil.
7. Make Honey Butter Sauce: In a separate pan, melt butter over medium heat. Stir in honey and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until slightly bubbly.
8. Coat Chicken: Drizzle the honey butter sauce over the fried chicken or toss the chicken in the sauce to ensure even coating.
9. Rest: Allow the chicken to rest for about 5 minutes for the sauce to soak in.
10. Garnish and Serve: Optionally sprinkle with chopped parsley for an appealing finish.

These steps will guide you in creating this incredible Honey Butter Chicken effortlessly, ensuring you achieve the perfect balance of flavors.
