Instructions
- Preheat the oven: Preheat oven to 200°C (400°F). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Prepare the herb crust: In a shallow bowl, mix panko breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, Italian herbs, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper.
- Coat the turkey: Dip each turkey cutlet into the beaten egg, then coat evenly with the breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently so the crust sticks well.
- Bake the turkey: Place the coated turkey cutlets on the prepared baking sheet and drizzle lightly with olive oil. Bake for 18–22 minutes until crispy and cooked through.
- Prepare the feta sauce: In a bowl, combine feta cheese, Greek yogurt, honey, lemon juice, lemon zest, chili flakes, garlic, and olive oil. Mix until creamy.
- Serve: Drizzle the hot honey lemon feta sauce over the crispy turkey cutlets.
