2. Once your oil is hot, dip your chicken in carefully. Add two to three pieces at a time. Don't overcrowd the pot so that oil does not spill over onto your stove.
3. Fry chicken for 10 to 12 minutes, until golden brown. And the internal temperature has reached 165° F.
4. Remove your chicken from the oil and let it cool on a wire rack with paper towels placed underneath.

2. In a small saucepan set to medium heat, add butter, honey, hot sauce, brown sugar, and squeeze of lemon.
3. Mix everything together until the sugar has dissolved and it's become bubbly.
Coating the Chicken and Building the Sandwich

2. Pour the hot honey sauce all over the chicken and give a nice shake so that everything is coated.
3. To build your chicken sandwich, add the hot honey chicken to brioche bread and add pickles.
