How to Make Crispy Honey Chicken

Arrange the prepared chicken pieces in the air fryer tray or basket. Cook according to the package instructions until golden and crispy.

While the chicken cooks, empty the sweet sauce with honey packet into a microwave safe container. Warm the sauce in 10 second intervals until heated through.

Once the chicken is fully cooked, toss or drizzle with the warm honey sauce until evenly coated. Set aside.

How to Make Creamy Baked Mac and Cheese

Preheat your oven to 375F.

In a large pot over medium heat, melt the butter until it begins to bubble slightly. Whisk in the flour and cook for 1 to 2 minutes to remove the raw flour taste.

Slowly pour in the half and half, whisking constantly to create a smooth sauce. Continue whisking for 3 to 4 minutes until the sauce thickens. Do not allow it to boil.

Season the sauce with garlic, onion powder, salt, pepper, and nutmeg.

Remove from heat and whisk in one cup of the sharp cheddar, all of the gouda, and half of the mozzarella until fully melted and smooth.

Fold in the cooked macaroni until evenly coated. Transfer the mixture to a baking dish and top with the remaining cheeses.

Bake on the middle rack for 15 to 21 minutes, until the cheese is melted, bubbly, and lightly browned. Remove from the oven and let rest for 5 to 10 minutes before assembling.

How to Assemble Crispy Chicken Mac and Cheese

Spoon the baked mac and cheese into serving bowls or keep it family style in the baking dish. Top generously with the crispy honey glazed chicken.

Drizzle with any remaining honey sauce and serve immediately while everything is hot and melty.

Tips for the Best Crispy Chicken Mac and Cheese

• Use freshly grated cheese for the smoothest sauce
• Let the mac and cheese rest before topping to help it set
• Air frying the chicken keeps it extra crispy against the creamy pasta
• Add a pinch of extra black pepper or chili flakes if you like heat

Storage and Reheating

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

To reheat, warm in the oven at 350F until heated through, covering loosely with foil to prevent drying out. For quicker reheating, microwave individual portions in short intervals, stirring the mac and cheese as needed. Add a splash of milk or half and half to bring back the creaminess.

Dip each rice ball into the egg wash, then into the seasoned breadcrumbs. Repeat by dipping once more into the egg wash and finishing with a final dredge in the breadcrumbs. Press gently so the coating sticks.

Fry Until Golden
Heat a pot of canola oil to 350°F. Working in batches, fry the rice balls for 3 to 4 minutes or until golden brown and crispy. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.

Make the Creamy Sweet Chili Sauce
In a small bowl, stir together the Japanese mayonnaise, sweet chili sauce, and water until smooth and creamy.

Serve and Enjoy
Serve your crispy rice balls hot with a generous side of the creamy sweet chili sauce for dipping. Get ready to savor the crunch, the cheese pull, and that sweet heat in every bite.

Storage and Reheating

Store any leftover rice balls in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, place them in a preheated oven or air fryer at 375°F for 6 to 8 minutes, or until hot and crispy again. Avoid microwaving to preserve the crunch.
