Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Begin by seasoning the chicken cutlets generously with salt and pepper on both sides. Set aside for about 10 minutes.
  2. Create your breading station with shallow dishes for flour, beaten eggs, and breadcrumbs. Dredge each cutlet in flour, dip in eggs, and then coat with breadcrumbs.
  3. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Fry the cutlets for 4-5 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through.
  4. Prepare the honey glaze by combining honey and chili flakes in a small saucepan over medium heat. Stir until warm and slightly thickened.
  5. Remove the cooked cutlets from the skillet, drain excess oil, and drizzle or brush the warm honey glaze over them.
  6. Serve the Hot Honey Chicken Cutlets immediately while hot and crispy, with your choice of sides.
