Step‑by‑Step Instructions

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper.
Set up a dredging station with flour, beaten eggs, and breadcrumbs. Dredge chicken in flour, then eggs, and finally breadcrumbs.
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Fry chicken for about 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown.
Transfer the fried chicken to a baking dish, top with feta cheese, and drizzle hot honey over it.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes until internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).
Let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before serving to retain moisture.
