Crispy Hot Honey Smothered Chicken

Ingredients

1. On a wooden cutting board, slice each chicken breast into three pieces.
2. Place a piece of baking paper on top of the chicken pieces and use rolling pin or mallet to beat them into 2cm thick pieces.
3. Assemble three shallow bowls on your bench. To the first one, add the flour. To the second, add the eggs and Capilano Hot Chilli Honey, then whisk well. To the third, add the breadcrumbs, dried herbs, salt and pepper, then mix well.
4. Dip each chicken piece in the flour, then the egg, then the breadcrumbs. Press the breadcrumbs into the chicken to create a solid coating.
5. Place a large saucepan over medium-high heat and add the vegetable oil. To test if the oil is ready, take a wooden spoon and dip it into the oil. If small bubbles instantly attach themselves to the spoon, the oil is ready to go.
6. Place a paper towel-lined tray to the side of the saucepan.
7. Using tongs, carefully lower three chicken pieces into the oil at a time. Fry for 3-5 minutes or until dark golden on each side and cooked through. Place the chicken pieces on the paper towel to absorb the excess oil.
8. In a small bowl, mix together the mayonnaise and Capilano Hot Chilli Honey.
9. Place the chicken schnitzels onto a serving plate, alongside the mayonnaise.
10. Drizzle with the extra Capilano Hot Chilli Honey, sprinkle with salt flakes and enjoy!
