Steps:
- To prepare the chicken, cut each tenderloin of chicken into 3 nugget-sized pieces. Place in a bowl and cover with the 1-1/2 cups buttermilk. Place in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
- Preheat oven to 450°F.
- Place 1/4 cup flour, bread crumbs, 1 teaspoon salt and 1 teaspoon sugar in a large resealable baggies. Remove each piece of chicken from the buttermilk with a fork letting excess buttermilk drip back into the bowl and place the chicken in the resealable baggie. Seal and shake the chicken until each piece is completely coated. Place about an inch apart on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Drizzle a little of the melted butter over each nugget. Bake until coating starts to crisp and brown, about 25 minutes.
- Meanwhile, prepare the biscuits. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour and sugar. Cut in the butter with a pastry blender or two knives in opposite directions. Add the buttermilk and stir with a wooden spoon or your hands until well combined. Flatten the dough out into about an 8×10-inch rectangle on a floured surface. Fold in half and then in half again and flatten back out into the rectangle. Repeat the folding process again and flatten back into the rectangle before cutting into 20 squares.
- Place biscuits a few inches apart on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Brush with half the melted butter. Bake for 15-20 minutes or until biscuits have risen and are starting to turn a light brown on top. Remove and brush with remaining melted butter.
- To serve, cut a biscuit in half, place a chicken nugget in the middle and drizzle with some honey (if desired) before sandwiching back together to enjoy!

Steps:
- Sprinkle the chicken thighs with salt, pepper, and onion powder.
- In a large bowl, whisk together 1 cup buttermilk and 1 egg. Add the chicken and turn to coat. Let the chicken soak while you make the biscuits.
- In a large bowl, combine the bread flour, all-purpose flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt. Place the cubed butter in a resealable plastic freezer bag. Freeze the flour mixture and butter separately until chilled through, 15 to 20 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 450°F (232°C). Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the buttermilk and egg.
- Using a pastry blender or fork, cut the chilled butter into the flour mixture until crumbly. Add buttermilk mixture, stirring just until dry ingredients are moistened.
- Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead lightly 3 to 4 times. Pat or roll the dough to 1-inch (25-mm) thickness and cut into 8 rectangles.
- Bake until golden brown, 15 to 16 minutes. Let cool slightly while the chicken is frying.
- In a large, deep cast-iron skillet or pot over high heat, pour enough oil to reach a depth of about 1 inch (25 mm) and heat it to 325°F (163°C).
- Place the flour in a shallow dish and dredge the chicken in it, shaking off any excess.
- Fry the chicken in 2 batches, adjusting the heat to maintain the oil temperature, until golden brown and cooked through, 5 to 8 minutes per side.
- Drain the chicken on a wire rack over paper towels.
- Split the biscuits in half. Sandwich the biscuits with 1 fried chicken thigh and serve immediately with any desired toppings.

Steps:
- Marinate the chicken: Generously season the chicken thighs with salt and pepper, then place in a large zip-top bag. Pour in 2 cups (480 G) of buttermilk and the pickle brine. Close the bag and place inside a large bowl. Marinate the chicken thighs in the refrigerator for 6 hours, or up to overnight.
- Make the biscuits: Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- Using a pastry cutter or a fork, incorporate the butter into the dry ingredients, leaving large chunks.
- Slowly pour in the buttermilk and fold with a rubber spatula until a thick dough forms.
- Lightly dust a clean surface with flour and turn the dough out onto it. Bring the dough together into one large piece.
- Adding more flour as needed, roll the dough out with a rolling pin to about 1 inch (2 ½ cm) thick. Using a 3-inch (7 cm) round biscuit cutter or small glass, cut out 6 biscuits and place them on the prepared baking sheet. It's okay if the biscuits are touching.
- Brush the biscuits with the melted butter and sprinkle with flaky salt. Reserve the remaining melted butter.
- Bake the biscuits for 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown.
- Fry the chicken: Remove the chicken from the refrigerator and let come to room temperature, about 30 minutes.
- Heat the canola oil in a large pot until it reaches 350°F (180°C). Set a wire rack over a baking sheet.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, onion powder, garlic powder, and salt. Add the buttermilk a bit at a time and stir with a rubber spatula to incorporate into the dry ingredients. It should be clumpy.
- Transfer a chicken thigh directly from the marinade to the flour mixture. Evenly coat the chicken all over, pressing to adhere the dry ingredients. Set on the wire rack and repeat with the remaining ingredients.
- Working 3 pieces at a time, add the chicken to the hot oil and cook until golden brown and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C), 5-7 minutes, turning occasionally to make sure the chicken browns evenly. Remove from the oil and let drain on paper towels. Season with salt.
- Cut the biscuits in half and brush one side with the reserved melted butter. Top with a piece of fried chicken and the other half of the biscuit.
- Enjoy!

MY OVEN "FRIED" CHICKEN AND BISCUITS
I usually do this with chicken breast, boneless or bone-in. You can do it with whatever parts you like. I've been making my oven "fried" chicken like this since the '60s! This may sound like a lot of work, but it just takes more time to write it out than to do it. NOTE: See the comment of Jacqueline in KY dated June 10. She warns about expired biscuit mix.
