Напрямки

Marinate the Chicken:

In a bowl, combine buttermilk and hot sauce. Add chicken cutlets and marinate for at least 30 minutes.

Prepare the Herb Crust:

In a shallow bowl, mix flour, panko, oregano, basil, thyme, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, cayenne, salt, and pepper.

Coat the Chicken:

Remove chicken from marinade, allowing excess to drip off. Dredge each cutlet in the herb crust mixture, pressing firmly to create a crispy coating.

Fry the Chicken:

Heat oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Fry cutlets for 4–5 minutes per side until golden brown and crispy. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate.

Make the Sauce:

In a small saucepan over low heat, combine honey, hot sauce, chili flakes, lemon zest, lemon juice, and butter. Stir until warm and slightly thickened.

Assemble the Dish:

Drizzle the hot honey lemon sauce over the crispy chicken cutlets.

Finish with Feta:

Sprinkle generously with crumbled feta and fresh herbs.

Serve:

Serve immediately with extra lemon wedges and your favorite side.
