Ingredients
4 cups hard pretzels (like sourdough), coarsely crushed
1/2 cup neutral tasting olive oil
1/2 cup Dijon mustard
1/3 cup honey (Iike clover or orange blossom)
1/4 cup bottled water---Bottled water?? lol. I used the tap water..
3 tablespoons red wine vinegar--- I didnt have this, so I used reg white vinegar
coarse salt and fresh ground black pepper
1 + 1/2 pounds boneless chicken breasts--- I tenderized the chicken a bit
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400° F. Set a wire rack (like an oven-safe cookie rack) over a large rimmed baking sheet.
- In a food processor pulse the pretzels until coarsely ground (small crumbs with some small pretzel pieces) then add them to a large, shallow bowl. Wipe the crumbs out of the food processor.
- Add the oil, mustard, honey, water and vinegar to the food processor and pulse until smooth.
- Season with salt and pepper. Taste and adjust the flavor to suit your own tastes by adding more mustard or honey.
- Pour half of the dressing into a large shallow bowl and add the chicken breasts. Turn to coat them evenly then dredge them in the pretzel crumbs using your hand to pat them on if needed.
- Set them on the wire rack and bake 20 - 25 minutes or until cooked through (internal temperature 165 - 174 degrees F.).
- Let the chicken sit 5 minutes before serving with the remaining honey mustard dressing.
**We dont own a cool rack thing for the oven, so we used a normal glass casserole dish and we just had to cook it longer. I think we ended up cooking it for like 40 minutes instead of 20.
