Slice the chicken breast into even strips and place them in a bowl with the buttermilk to marinate for 20 minutes.
In a separate shallow dish, whisk together the whole wheat flour, sea salt, black pepper, and garlic powder.
Remove each chicken strip from the buttermilk, letting the excess drip off, and dredge thoroughly in the flour mixture.
Heat the avocado oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
Place the chicken in the skillet and cook for 4 to 5 minutes per side until the crust is golden brown and the meat is cooked through.
While the chicken cooks, whisk the honey and hot sauce together in a small bowl to create the glaze.
Steam the broccoli florets in a steamer basket over boiling water until tender-crisp, about 4 minutes.
Drizzle the warm honey glaze over the crispy chicken strips and serve immediately alongside the steamed broccoli.
