Making Crispy Hot Honey Feta Chicken is easier than you might think. Just follow these simple steps:

1. Marinate the Chicken: In a large bowl, combine the buttermilk and chicken breasts. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes or up to overnight for maximum flavor.
2. Prepare the Coating: In another bowl, mix together the flour, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper.
3. Heat the Oil: In a large skillet or frying pan, heat about ½ inch of oil over medium-high heat until shimmering.
4. Dredge the Chicken: Remove the chicken from the buttermilk marinade, allowing excess to drip off. Dredge each piece in the flour mixture, ensuring an even coating.
5. Fry the Chicken: Carefully place the coated chicken breasts in the hot oil, cooking for 6-7 minutes on each side or until golden brown and cooked through. Use a meat thermometer to check that the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).
6. Make the Hot Honey Sauce: While the chicken is frying, warm hot honey in a small saucepan over low heat to soften it up if it’s too thick. Add more cayenne pepper if you prefer extra heat.
7. Drain the Chicken: Once cooked, transfer the chicken to a wire rack or paper towels to drain excess oil.
8. Top with Feta: While the chicken is still hot, drizzle generously with hot honey and sprinkle crumbled feta over the top.
9. Garnish: If desired, garnish with fresh parsley for a pop of color.
