Pretzel Crusted Honey Mustard Chicken
Pretzels and mustard go hand in hand, right? So why not honey mustard and pretzels?… and while we’re on that subject… why don’t we dunk some chicken in that said honey mustard and then coat it with some crushed up pretzels?!
THAT, my friends, is how my brain works. hah
And THAT is how some of our favorite dinners are born:
This is one heck of a meal! And one of the easiest as well…
5 ingredients, folks. That’s right – F.I.V.E. ingredients (and that even includes what you need to make your own homemade honey mustard dressing!).
You. will. love. it.
It’s no secret that we are fans of coating our proteins…
Jalapeno Kettle Chip Crusted Chicken with Jalapeno Ranch
Parmesan Panko Crusted Chicken with Lemon Butter Sauce
Crispy Baked Chicken with Citrus Teriyaki
Cashew Panko Chicken Tenders with Polynesian Sauce
Pork Schnitzel with Cider Braised Red Cabbage
Have I ever steered you wrong up to this point?! Try this chicken… it’s easy, it’s delicious, the kids will love it, the husband will love it… WIN.NING.

Crushed pretzels?! How innovative! Will definitely have to try this. Also love that it just takes 5 ingredients – makes it a lot easier for dinners during the week.
I’m also super excited about the Jalapeno Kettle Chip Crusted Chicken too.

Been making something like this for my family for several years after trying it a restaurant. For variation, I mix mustard powder in with crushed honey wheat pretzels and coat the chicken with a mixture of yellow, honey, spicy, and stone-ground mustards. Keep up the great blog, Mrs!

Looks yummy Tina.! Honey mustard and chicken go perfectly together!
Lorna — March 18, 2012 @ 11:09 pm
Served this last night for our dinner club (started in 1985 with 6 couples and still going!) It was very moist and tender. Great taste and the honey mustard sauce is excellent! Thanks for the recipe.
