Instructions
Making Pretzel Crusted Chicken with Honey Mustard Sauce is straightforward if you follow these clear steps:
1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Prepare the Chicken: Pat the chicken breasts dry with paper towels. Season both sides with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika.
3. Set Up Breading Station: In one bowl, place the all-purpose flour. In a second bowl, whisk together the eggs and Dijon mustard. In a third bowl, place the pretzel crumbs.
4. Bread the Chicken: Dredge each chicken breast in the flour, shaking off the excess. Then dip in the egg mixture, and finally, coat with pretzel crumbs, pressing gently to adhere.
5. Bake: Place the breaded chicken on the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 15 minutes or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) and is golden brown.
6. Make Honey Mustard Sauce: While the chicken is baking, whisk together honey and yellow mustard in a small bowl. Adjust to taste.
7. Serve: Once cooked, remove the chicken from the oven, let it rest for a few minutes, and serve with the honey mustard sauce drizzled on top.
