  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper

Topping

  • 1 cup crumbled feta cheese
  • 1/4 cup hot honey or to taste
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley chopped, for garnish

Instructions

Prepare the Chicken

Bake the Chicken

Add Toppings

  • Remove the chicken from the oven and sprinkle crumbled feta cheese on top.
  • Drizzle hot honey over the feta and chicken.
  • Return to the oven for an additional 5 minutes to melt the feta slightly.
