Ingredients
1 cup spicy brown mustard
1 cup mayonnaise
1/2 cup honey
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
2 cups crushed pretzel twists
1 1/2 pounds chicken tenders
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
4 tablespoons salted butter
1/4 cup olive oil
Directions
- Mix the brown mustard, mayonnaise and honey in a small bowl. Add 1 cup of the mixture to a shallow bowl. Reserve the rest for serving. Place the flour in another shallow bowl, then spread the pretzel crumbs on a plate.
- Season the chicken tenders with the salt. Coat each chicken tender in flour, then dunk in the honey-mustard mixture and coat in the pretzels; set aside on a large plate.
- Heat 2 tablespoons of the butter and 2 tablespoons of the olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-low heat until melted and hot. Add half of the chicken and cook until golden brown and cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Remove to a rack placed over a sheet pan. Repeat with the remaining butter, oil and chicken.
- Serve alongside the reserved honey mustard.
