Hot Honey Infused Feta Chicken: An Incredible Ultimate Recipe for 4


  • Author: Chef Ethan Sam
  • Total Time: 45 minutes

Ingredients

– 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
– ½ cup hot honey
– 1 cup crumbled feta cheese
– 2 tablespoons olive oil
– 2 cloves garlic, minced
– 1 teaspoon paprika
– ½ teaspoon salt
– ½ teaspoon black pepper
– Fresh thyme leaves, for garnish (optional)
– Lemon wedges, for serving (optional)


Instructions

Creating Hot Honey Infused Feta Chicken can be straightforward if you follow these easy steps:

1. Preheat Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 400°F (200°C).
2. Prepare Chicken: Pat the chicken breasts dry with paper towels. This helps in achieving a golden crust when cooking.
3. Season Chicken: In a bowl, mix the paprika, salt, and black pepper. Rub this mixture evenly over the chicken breasts.
4. Sear Chicken: Heat olive oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken breasts and sear for 4-5 minutes on each side until golden brown.
5. Add Garlic: Once the chicken is browned, add the minced garlic to the skillet, stirring for 30 seconds until fragrant.
6. Drizzle with Honey: Pour the hot honey over the chicken, allowing it to blend with the garlic.
7. Top with Feta: Sprinkle the crumbled feta cheese generously over each chicken breast.
8. Bake: Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
9. Garnish and Serve: Remove the skillet from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes. Garnish with fresh thyme leaves if desired.
10. Plate: Serve hot, ideally with fresh lemon wedges on the side for an added burst of flavor.

By following these steps, you’ll easily create a dish that is both beautiful and delicious, ready to impress anyone at your table.
