Ingredients

– 1 teaspoon garlic powder

Instructions
Creating Easy Crispy Hot Honey Feta Chicken is a breeze when you follow these simple steps:
1. Prepare the Chicken: Start by preheating your oven to 400°F (200°C). Pat the chicken breasts dry with paper towels, ensuring they are as moisture-free as possible for crispy results.
2. Set Up Breading Station: In one shallow dish, place the flour. In another dish, whisk the eggs until well combined. In a third dish, mix together the breadcrumbs, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper.
3. Bread the Chicken: Take each chicken breast and dredge it in the flour, shaking off any excess. Next, dip it into the whisked eggs, allowing any excess to drip off. Finally, coat the chicken in the breadcrumb mixture, ensuring it is fully covered.
4. Cook the Chicken: In a large oven-safe skillet over medium heat, add olive oil. Once hot, carefully place the breaded chicken breasts into the skillet. Cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown and crispy.
5. Top with Feta: Once both sides of the chicken are crispy, sprinkle crumbled feta cheese over each piece.
6. Bake the Chicken: Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) and the feta is slightly melted.
7. Drizzle Hot Honey: After removing the skillet from the oven, generously drizzle hot honey over each chicken breast while they are still hot.
8. Garnish and Serve: Lastly, sprinkle freshly chopped parsley over the chicken for a pop of color and additional flavor.
By following these straightforward steps, you will create a mouthwatering Easy Crispy Hot Honey Feta Chicken that is sure to be a hit!
