Description
A delightful dish featuring golden, crunchy chicken with a tangy hot honey glaze and creamy feta cheese.
Ingredients
Scale
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup panko breadcrumbs
- 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- Vegetable oil, for frying
- 1/4 cup honey
- 1 tablespoon hot sauce (adjust to taste)
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- Fresh parsley, chopped, for garnish
Instructions
- Pat the chicken pieces dry with paper towels and season with salt and pepper.
- Set up a dredging station with flour, beaten eggs, and a mixture of panko breadcrumbs, feta, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper.
- Coat each chicken breast in flour, dip in eggs, then press into panko mixture until thoroughly coated.
- Heat 1/4 inch of vegetable oil in a skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
- Fry the chicken for 4-5 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through (165°F internally).
- While the chicken cooks, prepare the hot honey glaze by warming honey, hot sauce, and lemon juice in a small saucepan over low heat.
- Transfer cooked chicken to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
- Drizzle the hot honey glaze over the chicken and garnish with chopped parsley before serving.
Notes
Ensure chicken is patted dry before coating for optimal crispiness. Customize the hot sauce amount in the glaze to adjust heat levels.
