Creating these delectable Hot Honey Chicken Cutlets involves a few simple steps:

1. Prepare the Chicken: Start by trimming the chicken breasts and slicing them in half horizontally to create thinner cutlets.
2. Season the Chicken: Season both sides of the chicken cutlets with salt, pepper, and any additional spices you desire.
3. Set Up the Dredging Stations:
– In one bowl, place the flour.
– In another bowl, beat the eggs.
– In a third bowl, add the breadcrumbs.
4. Dredge the Chicken: Coat each cutlet first in flour, then dip into the beaten eggs, and finally coat with breadcrumbs. Ensure they are fully covered for maximum crunch.
5. Heat the Oil: Pour oil into a large skillet over medium-high heat. Allow it to heat up until shimmering.
6. Fry the Chicken: Carefully add the breaded chicken cutlets to the skillet. Cook for about 4-5 minutes per side or until golden brown and cooked through.
7. Prepare the Hot Honey Sauce: In a small saucepan, combine honey and hot sauce. Heat over low until warmed and well mixed. Adjust the sauce to your taste, adding more honey if you prefer it sweeter or more hot sauce for extra heat.
8. Coat the Cutlets: Once the chicken is cooked, drizzle or toss the hot honey sauce generously over the cutlets in the skillet.
9. Serve Immediately: Remove from the skillet and let them rest for a minute before serving.
