How to Make Hot Honey Chicken Cutlets
  1. Prepare the chicken cutlets by ensuring they are thin and uniform for even cooking.
  2. Beat the eggs in one bowl. In another bowl, combine the flour with salt and pepper, ensuring the seasoning is well-mixed.
  3. Mix breadcrumbs with grated Parmesan cheese in a third bowl for added flavor.
  4. Dredge each cutlet in the seasoned flour, dip into the beaten eggs, then coat with the breadcrumb mixture.
  5. Heat vegetable oil in a skillet over medium heat until shimmering.
  6. Cook the cutlets in hot oil until golden brown, about 4-6 minutes per side.
  7. Remove the cutlets from the skillet and drizzle generously with hot honey.
  8. Garnish with fresh parsley and serve immediately with lemon wedges.
