Making Baked Crunchy Hot Honey Chicken can be an enjoyable cooking experience by following these simple steps:

1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Prepare Chicken: Pat the chicken dry with paper towels, then season with salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika.
3. Set Up Dredging Station: In one bowl, place the all-purpose flour. In a second bowl, beat the eggs. In a third bowl, add panko breadcrumbs.
4. Dredge Chicken: First, coat each piece of chicken in flour, shaking off the excess. Next, dip it in the beaten eggs, allowing any excess to drip off. Finally, coat the chicken in panko breadcrumbs, pressing firmly to ensure they stick.
5. Arrange on Baking Sheet: Place the coated chicken on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are not touching. Lightly spray them with cooking spray for added crunch.
6. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, until golden brown and cooked through, reaching an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
7. Prepare Hot Honey Glaze: While the chicken is baking, combine the honey and hot sauce in a small saucepan over low heat. Stir until warmed and thoroughly mixed.
8. Coat Chicken: Once the chicken is baked, drizzle the hot honey glaze generously over the top of each piece.
9. Return to Oven: If you prefer an extra layer of glaze, place the chicken back in the oven for an additional 5 minutes.
10. Cool: Remove from the oven and let cool for 5-10 minutes before serving to allow the glaze to set.
