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.

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.

1 Tablespoon mayonnaise
3 Tablespoons honey

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400o F. Combine the chicken and the buttermilk in a shallow dish. Cover and chill for 15 minutes. Pulverize cereal in a food processor. You could put the cereal in a plastic bag and crush with a rolling pin, it just won't be as fine or evenly crushed. Spray a baking tray with cooking spray. Season the chicken well with salt and pepper. Dip each piece of chicken in the cereal to fully coat and arrange on the baking tray. Bake until cooked through, about 10 minutes. Leave the chicken on the baking tray to cool slightly, it will get crispier. While chicken is baking make the honey-mustard sauce by combining mustard and mayonnaise until smooth. Stir in honey.
