Tuesday: Pretzel-Crusted Chicken

Recipe adapted from Sandra Lee, Semi-Homemade Cooking Made Light

Personal Note: This recipe is fool-proof. If you’re children don’t like this then I think McDonald’s may have slipped something in their ”Chicken McPressed into Boot-Shaped Patties” that destroyed all their taste buds. I suggest seeking professional help!

Plan of Attack:

1. Prepare Chicken

2. Bake Chicken

Ingredients for 2:

1 C crushed pretzels

2 boneless, skinless chicken breast cut into strips about a ½ inch wide

2 Tbsp Dijon Mustard

1 dainty squeeze of honey

Instructions:

1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Either spray a baking sheet with cooking spray, or cover with foil.
2. Place crushed pretzel crumbs on a large plate/pie pan.
3. Mix mustard and honey in a small bowl
4. Coat chicken with mustard mixture (I used a silicon brush) then cover with pretzel crumbs and place on baking sheet. Continue until all are coated and covered.
5. Bake chicken for 13-15 minutes, make sure chicken is cooking through
6. Enjoy!
