Zaxbys Chicken Fingers or Wings?

Zaxby’s famous chicken comes in boneless or traditional wings and the chicken fingers-style. Any variety can be tossed in your choice of Zaxby’s sauce. My favorite is the Zaxbys boneless wings in a honey mustard wing sauce. It’s less messy than eating bone-in chicken and the boneless style can easily be transformed into a sandwich or enjoyed from a fork.

This fried chicken recipe isirresistibly tender and crispy thanks to the bite-sized boneless wings that get tenderized in a quick baking soda marinade and then hand-breaded to the best homemade chicken coating.

This chicken breading was adapted from my Popeyes Fried Chicken Recipe (which is the best-fried chicken recipe I’ve ever come to!) For my other fried chicken recipes check out thisCountry Fried Chicken with Gravy (99 Copycat),Crispy Chicken Tenders,Boneless Chicken Wings, andEasy Orange Chicken Recipe.

Zaxby’s Boneless Wings In Honey Mustard Sauce

After nailing the Popeyes Chicken Sandwich, I’ve been sticking to this fried chicken recipe since. It’s literally Restaurant-quality fried chicken with an impeccable crust.

Further ado, I’ve simplified the recipe for the Zaxby’s Chicken Copycat and after comparing both side-by-side with the real thing, I was told the homemade chicken was way better!

Honey Mustard Sauce vs Hot Honey Mustard Sauce

The main difference between both honey mustard sauces is that the hot honey mustard sauce has cayenne pepper for additional spice. Whereas, regular honey mustard sauce is more of a yellow hue due to the lack of ground cayenne.

For my Copycat Zaxby’s Honey Mustard Sauce and full story on how it was made, read my post. It’s been claimed to be a spot-on copycat from my taste-testers, and believe me one of them is a Zaxby’s connoisseur!

A Honey mustard sauce recipe can be used as a dipping sauce to French Fries, chicken wing sauce, or salad dressing. I do not find the Hot Honey Mustard Sauce to be too spicy. In fact, it is rated on the wimpy side of its signature sauces. Both honey mustard sauces are available at Zaxby’s near me.Zaxby’s sells their signature sauces for $.25 apiece.
