Cut the chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces, approximately 1 inch each.
Place the chicken pieces in a bowl and pour the buttermilk over them. Let the chicken marinate for at least 15 minutes (or up to 4 hours in the refrigerator).
In a separate bowl, mix together the flour, cornstarch, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper.
Drain the chicken pieces, allowing excess buttermilk to drip off, then coat each piece in the flour mixture. Shake off any excess flour.
Heat the vegetable oil in a deep skillet or Dutch oven to 350°F (175°C).
Fry the chicken in batches, making sure not to overcrowd the pan. Cook each batch for 5-6 minutes or until the chicken is golden brown and cooked through. Remove the chicken and drain on a paper towel-lined plate.
In a small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, sweet chili sauce, sriracha, and honey to create the Bang Bang sauce.
Transfer the fried chicken to a large mixing bowl, then drizzle the Bang Bang sauce over the chicken. Toss gently to evenly coat.
Garnish with sliced green onions and serve immediately. This dish pairs well with steamed rice or as part of an appetizer spread.
