Ingredients
– 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
– 1 cup all-purpose flour
– 2 large eggs
– 1 cup panko breadcrumbs
– 1 teaspoon garlic powder

– 1 teaspoon paprika

Instructions
Follow these simple steps to whip up your own Crispy Hot Honey Feta Chicken:
1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and prepare a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
2. Prepare Chicken: If necessary, pound the chicken breasts to an even thickness. This ensures even cooking.
3. Set Up Breading Stations: In three separate shallow bowls, set up your dredging station. Place the flour in the first bowl, beat the eggs in the second bowl, and mix the panko breadcrumbs, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper in the third.
4. Bread the Chicken: Start by dredging each chicken breast in flour, shaking off any excess. Then, dip it into the eggs, letting the excess drip off before coating it in the breadcrumb mixture.
5. Drizzle with Olive Oil: Place the breaded chicken on the prepared baking sheet. Drizzle each piece lightly with olive oil to help achieve a crispy texture.
6. Bake the Chicken: Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and golden brown.
7. Add Hot Honey: In the final five minutes of baking, drizzle the hot honey over the chicken, ensuring it coats the pieces evenly.
8. Sprinkle Feta: Once done, remove the chicken from the oven and sprinkle the crumbled feta on top while it’s still hot.
9. Garnish and Serve: Let the chicken rest for a couple of minutes, then garnish with fresh parsley before serving.
