Chicken
- 2 250g Chicken Breasts
- 2 teaspoon Paprika
- 1 teaspoon Salt

- ½ teaspoon Garlic Powder
- ½ teaspoon Dried Oregano

Instructions
Cooking Instructions
- Combine the honey, hot sauce and chilli flakes in a bowl and warm in the microwave (20 seconds or so). 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 and place a large tray at the end. Coat the chicken in flour, then egg, and finally breadcrumbs.
- Add enough oil to coat the base of a large pan and place it over medium-high heat. Fry the chicken for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden and crispy.
- Add the crumbled feta, covering as much of the chicken as possible, then place under the grill on high until it starts turning golden.
- Serve with your preferred amount of hot honey drizzled over.
Notes
Hot honey can be made ahead of time and stored in the fridge. This dish can also be baked instead of fried.
