Method
 

Cooking Steps
  1. Combine the honey, hot sauce, and chilli flakes in a bowl and warm in the microwave for about 20 seconds. Stir and let cool.
  2. Horizontally slice the chicken breasts to create 4 even-sized pieces.
  3. In a small bowl, combine paprika, salt, onion powder, garlic powder, oregano, cayenne, and black pepper.
  4. Set up 3 large shallow dishes: the first with flour and half of the seasoning mix, the second with beaten eggs, and the third with Panko and the remaining seasoning.
  5. Dredge the chicken in flour, then egg, then breadcrumbs, ensuring full coverage at each stage, and place on a tray.
  6. Heat enough oil to coat the base of a large pan over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the chicken (in batches if necessary) and fry for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden and cooked through. Place on a wire rack.
  7. Top the chicken with crumbled feta, then place under a grill on high until golden and slightly crisp.
  8. Drizzle with hot honey before serving.
