Ingredients

Nonstick cooking spray, for the baking sheet
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup Dijon mustard
1/4 cup grated Parmesan
1 teaspoon garlic powder
Freshly ground black pepper
3 heaping cups pretzels, preferably Dot's Homestyle Pretzels, finely crushed (a few larger pieces are okay)
1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breast, cut into 1-inch bite-sized pieces, patted dry
1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt
1/4 cup grated Parmesan
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
2 shakes Worcestershire sauce
Lots of freshly ground black pepper
Pinch kosher salt
1 clove garlic, grated with a fine zester
Juice and zest of 1/2 lemon
10 ounces chopped kale or baby kale
1/2 cup shaved or grated Parmesan, plus more for serving
4 radishes, thinly sliced
1 avocado, sliced

Steps:

For the chicken: Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Set a wire rack in a rimmed baking sheet and spray the rack with nonstick spray. Set aside.
Combine the mayo, mustard, Parmesan, garlic powder and a few turns of pepper in a large bowl. Add the pretzels to a separate bowl or large shallow dish. Coat the chicken all over in the mayo mixture, then the crushed pretzels, and transfer to the wire rack, spacing it out evenly. Spray the chicken with cooking spray and bake until fully cooked, with an internal temperature of 165 degrees F, 12 to 18 minutes.
For the dressing: Combine the yogurt, Parmesan, oil, mustard, Worcestershire, pepper, salt, garlic, lemon juice and zest in a bowl and adjust the seasoning as needed.
For the salad: Toss together the kale, Parmesan and radishes in a large bowl. Top with the avocado slices, chicken and more shaved Parm as desired.

These chicken nuggets were a bit too salty for my taste.

I've made these chicken nuggets several times and they're always a hit. They're a great way to use up leftover chicken.

These chicken nuggets were easy to make and turned out great! I used a gluten-free pretzel mix and they were still delicious.

These pretzel-crusted chicken nuggets were a hit with my family! The chicken was juicy and tender, and the pretzel crust was crispy and flavorful. I will definitely be making these again.
