Crispy Hot Honey Chicken Feta (Print Version)
# Ingredients:
01 -
4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
02 -
1 tablespoon olive oil
03 -
1 teaspoon garlic powder
04 -
1 teaspoon paprika
05 -
1/2 teaspoon salt
06 -
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
07 -
1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
08 -
3 tablespoons hot honey
09 -
Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
# Instructions:
01 -
Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
02 -
Rub the chicken breasts with olive oil, and then evenly coat with garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper on both sides.
03 -
Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and sear the chicken breasts for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown.
04 -
Transfer the seared chicken to the prepared baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 75°C (165°F).
05 -
Drizzle the hot honey over the chicken breasts and sprinkle with crumbled feta cheese. Bake for an additional 5 minutes to allow the cheese to melt and the honey to caramelize.
06 -
Remove the chicken from the oven, garnish with fresh parsley, and serve hot.
# Notes:
01 -
Searing the chicken before baking locks in moisture and creates a crispy exterior.

This dish is versatile and pairs well with roasted vegetables or salads.
