Istruzioni

Prep your chicken

Slice breasts thin so they cook evenly. Pat dry (this is how you get CRISPY).

Season both sides with salt, pepper, garlic powder, paprika, oregano.

Make the crust

Mix panko + parmesan + herbs + olive oil.

This is what gives you that crispy “fried” texture without frying.

Coat the chicken

Press each cutlet firmly into the crust mixture so it sticks WELL.

Don’t be gentle—this is where texture comes from.

Bake

Place on a lined baking sheet or rack.

Bake at 425°F for 18–22 minutes until golden and crispy.

Optional: broil 1–2 minutes at the end for extra crunch 🔥)

Make the feta topping

Mix feta + Greek yogurt + lemon juice + zest + hot honey.

Should be creamy, tangy, slightly sweet + spicy.

Finish

Spoon the feta mixture right over the hot crispy chicken.

Let it melt slightly into the crust.

WHY THIS HITS DIFFERENT 👇

High protein from chicken + parmesan + Greek yogurt

No deep frying = less inflammation, better digestion

Balanced flavors = you won’t go hunting for snacks after

Actually satisfying… not “diet food”

MACRO TIP 🔥
