After you taste this, you’re going to wonder how something that takes minutes to put together can taste so outstanding! The combo of spicy with a hint of sweetness appeals to everyone. It’s low cal too. Best eaten fresh.

Ingredients

Chicken

  • 1 and 3/4 pounds (800 grams) chicken cutlets

  • 1 and 1/2 teaspoons chili powder

  • 3/4 teaspoon oregano (I use McCormick Oregano Herb Grinder for optimum flavor)

  • scant 1 teaspoon Haddar Kosher Salt

Directions

Make the Chicken

1.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Spray a grill pan (or two, if necessary) with cooking spray. Place cutlets in pan.

2.

Rub spice mixture evenly onto cutlets. Bake for 10–12 minutes.

3.

Combine chili powder, oregano, salt, and olive oil in a very small bowl. Mix well.

4.

Turn oven to grill. Remove cutlets from oven and drizzle honey all over. Return to oven and grill for 10 minutes or until done. Serve with rice or mashed potatoes, broccoli, and a fresh salad.

Notes:

I like to use thin chicken cutlets here so they stay succulent inside and crispy outside.

Is it possible that step 2 and 3 are listed in the wrong order?

Grill pans are generally used because they give those nice lines that people like. Flavor wise, a grill pan isn’t doing anything a regular pan can’t accomplish. This recipe calls for baking the cutlets, and in general, you will always get better results using non-disposable bakeware. That being said, in a pinch, you can use disposable. You may need to extend cooking time, and your chicken may be drier and won’t brown as nicely. You can also cook these in a skillet or grill pan on the stovetop.

Ingredient list The ingredient list mentions honey, while the directions mention olive oil, which one is the correct one?

Yes it was so tasty!! My oven does not have a grill setting so I just grilled it in a grill pan…and it came out delicious!
