Description

A bold and flavorful chicken dish featuring a crispy herb crust, topped with a spicy hot honey lemon glaze and crumbled feta cheese for a tangy finish.


Ingredients

Scale

For the Crust:

  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 cup panko breadcrumbs
  • 1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped
  • 2 tablespoons fresh oregano, chopped
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • 2 eggs, beaten
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 1 tablespoon hot sauce
  • Juice of 1 lemon
  • 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
  • Lemon wedges for serving

Instructions

1. Prepare the Crust:

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a shallow dish, mix panko, parsley, oregano, garlic powder, smoked paprika, cayenne, salt, and black pepper. In separate dishes, place flour and beaten eggs.
  3. Dredge each chicken breast in flour, then dip in egg, and coat evenly with the herb breadcrumb mixture.
  4. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear chicken for 3-4 minutes per side until golden brown. Transfer to the baking sheet.
  5. Bake for 15-20 minutes until chicken is cooked through and crispy.
  6. In a small saucepan, combine honey, hot sauce, and lemon juice. Heat over low until warm and slightly thickened.
  7. Drizzle hot honey lemon glaze over baked chicken and sprinkle with crumbled feta. Serve with lemon wedges.
