Ingredients
  

Chicken
  • 4 chicken breasts boneless, skinless, sliced into cutlets
  • 1 cup feta cheese crumbled
Breading Station
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 eggs beaten
  • 1 cup panko breadcrumbs
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
Frying and Sauce
  • 1/4 cup olive oil or neutral oil, for frying
  • 1/4 cup hot honey store-bought or homemade

Equipment

  • Skillet
  • Mixing Bowls
  • Knife

Method
 

  1. Slice each chicken breast in half horizontally to create cutlets. Cut a pocket in each and stuff with feta.
  2. Set up breading station with separate bowls for flour, beaten eggs, and panko mixed with spices.
  3. Dip each stuffed cutlet in flour, then egg, then seasoned panko. Press to coat thoroughly.
  4. Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat. Fry chicken for 4–5 minutes per side, until golden and cooked through.
  5. Warm the hot honey slightly and drizzle generously over hot chicken. Serve immediately.

Notes

You can stuff and bread the chicken ahead and refrigerate. Freeze without honey for up to 2 months. Reheat and add fresh honey before serving.
