5Fry chicken, turning once, for 15 to 20 minutes or until juices run clear and instant-read thermometer inserted in thickest part of drumstick registers 165° F (74° C). Transfer to paper towel–lined tray. Stir honey with hot sauce; drizzle over chicken.
Chef’s Tips
- To make sure your chicken is cooked through, look for an internal temperature reading of 180° F (82° C) for a whole chicken, and 165° F (74° C) for ground poultry, chicken pieces and cuts. Â
- Alternatively, use an air fryer or deep fryer to cook chicken, following manufacturer’s instructions. Â
