Equipment

  • microwave
  • Large pan
  • Wire rack
  • large baking tray
  • small pot

Ingredients
  

  • cup Honey
  • 1 ½ teaspoon Hot Sauce I like Frank's or Cholula
  • ¾ teaspoon Chilli Flakes
  • 2 250g Chicken Breasts
  • 2 teaspoon Paprika
  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • ½ teaspoon Onion Powder
  • ½ teaspoon Garlic Powder
  • ½ teaspoon Dried Oregano
  • ½ teaspoon Black Pepper
  • ¼ teaspoon Cayenne Pepper
  • 35 g Plain Flour
  • 2 Eggs beaten
  • 65 g Panko Breadcrumbs
  • 6-8 tablespoon Veg Oil as needed
  • 200 g Feta crumbled

Instructions
 

  • Combine the honey, hot sauce and chilli flakes in a bowl and warm in the microwave for 20 seconds. Stir then leave to cool.
  • Horizontally slice the chicken breasts right through the centre to create 4 even-sized breasts.
  • In a small pot or bowl combine the paprika, salt, onion powder, garlic powder, oregano, cayenne and black pepper.
  • Line up 3 large shallow dishes. The first bowl is flour + half of the seasoning mix, the second is beaten egg, and the third is the Panko with the rest of the seasoning.
  • One by one take the chicken and dredge through the flour, into the egg, then the breadcrumbs and place on a tray.
  • Add enough oil to coat the base of a large pan over medium-high heat. Once hot, carefully place in the chicken, frying for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden and crispy.
  • Place the fried chicken on a wire rack and add the crumbled feta, then place under the grill on high until golden.
  • Serve with your preferred amount of hot honey drizzled over and enjoy.

Notes

You can make hot honey in a variety of ways. Adjust spiciness to your preference. You can also bake the chicken instead of frying, if desired.
