PRETZEL-CRUSTED CHICKEN FINGERS WITH HONEY MUSTARD DIPPING SAUCE



Pretzel-Crusted Chicken Fingers with Honey Mustard Dipping Sauce image

Whenever I visit my family in Minnesota, I can't wait to get my hands on a bag of Dot's Homestyle Pretzels. They're coated in a top-secret seasoning mix that I crave! This recipe recreates the flavor of Dot's, using butter-flavored pretzels mixed with ranch seasoning, so now we can satisfy that craving year-round. The pretzel mix is the perfect coating for chicken fingers that are fried till crispy then served with a punchy-sweet dipping sauce.

Time 25m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1/3 cup yellow mustard
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
3 tablespoons brown sugar
1/4 cup honey
1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
3 cups plain or butter-flavored pretzels (about 6 1/2 ounces)
1 tablespoon ranch dressing mix or 1/2 teaspoon each onion powder and garlic powder
3 large eggs
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 pound chicken tenders (7 to 8 pieces) or 1 pound boneless skinless chicken breast cut into 7 to 8 strips
1 cup all-purpose flour
Vegetable oil, for frying

Steps:

  • For the dipping sauce: Whisk together both mustards with the brown sugar, honey and lemon juice in a small bowl. Cover and set aside until ready to use.
  • For the chicken fingers: Pulse the pretzels in a food processor until finely ground but pea-sized bits remain. Transfer to a medium bowl and stir in the ranch dressing mix or onion powder and garlic powder and 1 teaspoon salt.
  • Beat the eggs with 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of black pepper in another medium bowl.
  • Whisk the flour with 1 tablespoon salt and a few grinds of black pepper in a third medium bowl.
  • Set a wire rack in a rimmed baking sheet. Dredge 1 chicken piece at a time in the seasoned flour, shaking off the excess, then dip into the egg to evenly coat, and finally evenly coat in the pretzel crumbs. Transfer to the prepared wire rack.
  • Heat 1/2 inch oil in a 12-inch cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Test the temperature of the oil by dropping a pinch of leftover flour in the oil. When it sizzles and rises to the top, the oil is ready for frying. Add half of the chicken to the skillet and fry until golden brown, flipping once, 1 1/2 to 2 minutes per side. Transfer with tongs to a paper towel-lined plate. Season with a sprinkle of salt. Repeat the frying process with the remaining chicken.
  • Serve the chicken fingers warm with the mustard dipping sauce.

PRETZEL-CRUSTED CHICKEN TENDERS



Pretzel-Crusted Chicken Tenders image

This recipe, a kid pleaser, is from John Mitzewich at the About.com site. Chicken tenders are marinated in a tasty concoction then coated with coarse pretzel pieces. They are baked, not fried. Adults will like this tasty finger food, too!

Provided by Lorraine of AZ

Categories     Chicken Breast

Time 50m

Yield 3-4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard, plus additional
1 tablespoon orange marmalade
2 tablespoons rice vinegar, plus additional
salt and pepper
1/2 cup buttermilk
2 -3 cups coarse pretzel crumbs
vegetable oil
2 tablespoons melted butter (or more)

Steps:

  • Slice the chicken breasts lengthwise into 4 or 5 strips.
  • In a large plastic bag, combine the 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard, orange marmalade, 2 tablespoons rice vinegar, salt and pepper, and buttermilk. Mix and add chicken strips. Allow to marinate about 20 minutes, no longer than 30 minutes because after that the chicken will start to "cook.".
  • Meanwhile, place pretzels in another large plastic bag and smash them into coarse crumbs (Mitzewich used pretzel sticks). You will need 2-3 cups. Place the crumbs in a shallow bowl.
  • Remove the chicken from marinade, letting the excess marinade drain off.
  • Add a few chicken strips to the crumbs and press the crumbs into the chicken.
  • Oil a baking sheet and place coated strips on sheet. Repeat coating procedure with remaining strips.
  • When all the strips are on the baking sheet, drizzle the melted butter over them. The more butter you use here, the browner and richer the finished strips will be.
  • Bake in a preheated 400 degree F. oven 20-30 minutes.
  • Thin some additional Dijon mustard with additional rice vinegar and drizzle this mixture over the cooked chicken.
