Directions

  1. 1To make the hot honey, combine honey, hot sauce, and chili flakes in a bowl and warm it in the microwave for about 20 seconds. Stir, then leave to cool.
  2. 2Horizontally slice the chicken breasts right through the center to create four even-sized breasts.
  3. 3In a small bowl, combine paprika, salt, onion powder, garlic powder, oregano, cayenne, and black pepper for seasoning.
  4. 4Prepare three large shallow dishes: one with flour mixed with half of the seasoning, one with beaten egg, and one with panko breadcrumbs mixed with the rest of the seasoning.
  5. 5Dredge each chicken breast through the seasoned flour, then the beaten egg, and finally thoroughly coat it in the seasoned panko breadcrumbs.
  6. 6Add enough vegetable oil to coat the base of a large pan and place it over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot, fry the chicken for 3-4 minutes per side, or until deep golden and cooked through.
  7. 7Place the fried chicken on a wire rack above a tray.
  8. 8Crumble feta cheese over the cooked chicken and place it under the grill or broiler on high until the feta turns gorgeously crispy on top and soft underneath.
  9. 9Serve the chicken with your preferred amount of the prepared hot honey drizzled on top.
