"This recipe is inspired by the very first meal ever eaten on Game of Thrones and in the book series.
When Robert Baratheon, King of Westeros, visits the Starks at Winterfell, the two families share a meal of honey-roasted chicken.
These Little (Chicken) Fingers...(fans will get this reference😉) are breaded with panko and corn flakes, flash fried, finished in the oven and then slathered with a honey glaze. Served with a killer dipping sauce, they are so good they may even bring peace to Kings Landing tonight."
