Provided by Kardea Brown

Categories     main-dish

Time 45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 cup all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons garlic powder
2 teaspoons onion powder
1 teaspoon paprika
1 teaspoon ground mustard
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
3 large eggs
16 to 20 ounces your favorite BBQ or salt and vinegar potato chips (I like Zapp's Voodoo)
2 pounds boneless chicken breast, cut into strips
1/2 cup honey
5 tablespoons mayonnaise
1/4 cup Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon yellow mustard
1 tablespoon whole-grain mustard
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
Kosher salt

Steps:

  • For the chicken: Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment.
  • In a bowl or baking dish, add the flour, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, ground mustard and 2 teaspoons each salt and pepper and stir to combine. Beat the eggs in a separate baking dish. Finely crush the potato chips in their bag or in a separate resealable bag. Pour into a bowl or baking dish.
  • Sprinkle the chicken with 2 teaspoons salt. Dip the chicken in the seasoned flour and coat completely, then into the egg mixture until completely coated. Finally, dip the chicken into the potato chips, making sure the chips stick to the whole surface. Transfer the chicken to the prepared baking sheet.
  • Bake, flipping halfway through, until the chicken is golden brown and reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees F, about 20 minutes.
  • For the honey mustard sauce: While the chicken is baking, mix together the honey, mayonnaise, Dijon, yellow mustard, whole-grain mustard and garlic powder in a small bowl. Season with salt as desired. Serve with the chicken.

PRETZEL-CRUSTED CHICKEN FINGERS WITH HONEY MUSTARD DIPPING SAUCE



Pretzel-Crusted Chicken Fingers with Honey Mustard Dipping Sauce image

Whenever I visit my family in Minnesota, I can't wait to get my hands on a bag of Dot's Homestyle Pretzels. They're coated in a top-secret seasoning mix that I crave! This recipe recreates the flavor of Dot's, using butter-flavored pretzels mixed with ranch seasoning, so now we can satisfy that craving year-round. The pretzel mix is the perfect coating for chicken fingers that are fried till crispy then served with a punchy-sweet dipping sauce.

Categories     main-dish

Time 25m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1/3 cup yellow mustard
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
3 tablespoons brown sugar
1/4 cup honey
1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
3 cups plain or butter-flavored pretzels (about 6 1/2 ounces)
1 tablespoon ranch dressing mix or 1/2 teaspoon each onion powder and garlic powder
3 large eggs
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 pound chicken tenders (7 to 8 pieces) or 1 pound boneless skinless chicken breast cut into 7 to 8 strips
1 cup all-purpose flour
Vegetable oil, for frying

Steps:

  • For the dipping sauce: Whisk together both mustards with the brown sugar, honey and lemon juice in a small bowl. Cover and set aside until ready to use.
  • For the chicken fingers: Pulse the pretzels in a food processor until finely ground but pea-sized bits remain. Transfer to a medium bowl and stir in the ranch dressing mix or onion powder and garlic powder and 1 teaspoon salt.
  • Beat the eggs with 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of black pepper in another medium bowl.
  • Whisk the flour with 1 tablespoon salt and a few grinds of black pepper in a third medium bowl.
  • Set a wire rack in a rimmed baking sheet. Dredge 1 chicken piece at a time in the seasoned flour, shaking off the excess, then dip into the egg to evenly coat, and finally evenly coat in the pretzel crumbs. Transfer to the prepared wire rack.
  • Heat 1/2 inch oil in a 12-inch cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Test the temperature of the oil by dropping a pinch of leftover flour in the oil. When it sizzles and rises to the top, the oil is ready for frying. Add half of the chicken to the skillet and fry until golden brown, flipping once, 1 1/2 to 2 minutes per side. Transfer with tongs to a paper towel-lined plate. Season with a sprinkle of salt. Repeat the frying process with the remaining chicken.
  • Serve the chicken fingers warm with the mustard dipping sauce.

CRUSTED HONEY MUSTARD CHICKEN RECIPE - (4.4/5)



Crusted Honey Mustard Chicken Recipe - (4.4/5) image

Provided by cosmos2015

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 spray cooking spray
2/3 cup lite honey mustard dressing
1/8 teaspoon table salt
1/8 teaspoon black pepper
2 teaspoons chopped fresh dill
1 medium scallion, finely sliced
1 cup cornflake crumbs
1 pound boneless skinless chicken breast(s), cut into 4 equal pieces

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425°F. Coat a shallow pan with cooking spray. In a small bowl, combine honey mustard dressing, salt, pepper, dill and scallions; remove 1/3 cup and set aside. Place cornflake crumbs in a shallow bowl. Dip chicken into dressing mixture and then cornflake crumbs; place in prepared pan. Bake until chicken is golden and no longer pink in center, about 15 minutes. Drizzle reserved dressing mixture over chicken breasts and serve.

Tips:

  • Choose the right chicken: For this recipe, it's best to use boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs. If you're using chicken breasts, pound them thin to ensure even cooking.
  • Make sure the honey is warm: This will help it adhere to the chicken and create a crispy crust.
  • Don't crowd the chicken in the pan: Make sure there is enough space between each piece of chicken so that it can cook evenly.
  • Cook the chicken over medium heat: This will help prevent the honey from burning.
  • Don't overcook the chicken: Overcooked chicken will be tough and dry. Cook it just until it is cooked through.
  • Serve the chicken immediately: Honey-crusted chicken is best served hot and fresh out of the pan.

Conclusion:

Honey-crusted chicken is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight dinner. It's also a great way to use up leftover chicken. Serve it with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a simple salad.
