INGREDIENTS

1/4 cup dijon mustard
1/4 cup plain yogurt, sour cream, or olive oil mayo
2 Tbsp honey
2 pounds boneless chicken tenders
2 cups finely crushed salted pretzel twists
1 tsp each garlic and onion powder
1/2 tsp smoked paprika
1 tsp black pepper
Extra virgin olive oil for brushing

DIRECTIONS

  • In a bowl, whisk together the mustard, yogurt, and honey. Add the chicken and toss well to coat.

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment.

  • Add the pretzel crumbs, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika and a pinch of pepper to a medium sized bowl. Stir to combine.

  • Remove each piece of chicken from the honey mustard, and dredge through the crumbs, pressing gently to adhere. Place on the prepared baking sheet. Repeat until all the chicken has been used. Make sure not to crowd your pan, if necessary use two baking sheets. Lightly brush/drizzle the chicken with olive oil. Transfer to the oven and bake for 15-20 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through.
