3 Ingredient Honey Mustard Crispy Chicken By Freda Food

CRISPY BAKED HONEY MUSTARD CHICKEN

Steps:

• Position a rack in the center of the oven and preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Place the garlic, thyme, salt, and pepper in a food processor and pulse until the garlic is finely minced. Add in the panko, lemon zest, olive oil, and butter and continue to pulse a few times until the breadcrumbs are moistened. Pour the breadcrumb mixture onto a large plate. In a shallow bowl, whisk together the mustard, honey and chicken broth.
• Pat the chicken thighs dry with a paper towl. Sprinkle with a little bit of salt and pepper. Dip each piece into the mustard mixture to coat on all side, then place skin-side down only in the crumb mixture, pressing gently to make the crumbs stick. Place the chicken on a sheet pan crumb-side up. Press any remaining crumbs onto the chicken pieces. At this point honey mustard chicken can covered with plastic wrap and refrigerated until ready to bake.
• Bake the chicken for 40 minutes. Raise the oven temperature to 400 degrees F and continue to bake for an additional 10 minutes until the crumbs are browned and the chicken is cooked through. Serve warm.

CRISPY MUSTARD CHICKEN & FRISEE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Place the garlic, thyme, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper in a food processor fitted with the steel blade and process until the garlic is finely minced. Add the panko, lemon zest, 1 tablespoon olive oil, and the butter and pulse a few times to moisten the panko. Pour the mixture into a shallow bowl. In another shallow bowl, whisk together the mustard and wine.
• Pat the chicken thighs dry with paper towels and sprinkle generously with salt and pepper. Dip each piece first in the mustard mixture to coat the top and bottom and then coat the skin side only in the crumb mixture, pressing gently to make the crumbs adhere. Place the chicken on one side of a sheet pan, crumb side up, and press any remaining crumbs onto the chicken.
• Place the potatoes, 1 tablespoon olive oil, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper in a bowl and toss. Spread the potatoes on the other side of the sheet pan in one layer and roast both together for 40 to 50 minutes, turning the potatoes once during roasting, until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 160 degrees F. The chicken and potatoes should be done at the same time.
• Meanwhile, place the greens on a serving platter. When the chicken and potatoes are done, toss the salad with enough vinaigrette to moisten and place the chicken and potatoes on top, adding any crumbs from the sheet pan. Sprinkle with salt and serve while the chicken and potatoes are still warm.
• Place the shallots, vinegar, olive oil, mustard, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper in a small bowl and whisk until emulsified.

Dip each piece in the mustard mixture to coat on all sides, and then place skin-side down only into the crumb mixture, pressing gently to make the crumbs adhere. Place the chicken on a sheet pan crumb-side up. Press the remaining crumbs on the chicken pieces.
• Bake the chicken for 40 minutes. Raise the heat to 400 degrees F and bake for another 10 minutes, until the crumbs are browned and the chicken is cooked through. Serve hot, warm, or at room temperature.

CRISPY CHICKEN TENDERS WITH HONEY MUSTARD SAUCE

Steps:

• Cut chicken into long strips. Set aside.
• Place beaten eggs in a shallow bowl. Place flour in another shallow bowl (I like to season flour with 1/2 teaspoon salt, pepper, and cayenne for extra flavor).
• Place panko breadcrumbs in another shallow bowl and season with garlic powder, lemon pepper, cayenne, salt and pepper. Mix well.
• Dip the chicken strips in the flour, then the beaten egg, then dredge into seasoned panko.
• Fry chicken in batches in deep fryer preheated to 350 degrees for about 6-8 minutes. The chicken should be cooked through and golden brown.
• Remove to drain on paper towels. Sprinkle with additional salt and pepper once out of the fryer. Serve with honey mustard sauce.
• To make the honey mustard sauce: Mix together the mustard, honey, mayo, lemon juice and season with salt and pepper to taste. Will keep in fridge up to a week.

CRISPY PRETZEL CHICKEN WITH HONEY-MUSTARD SAUCE

Steps:

• Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Crush the pretzels in a food processor or bash up in a plastic bag using a rolling pin. Transfer pretzel crumbs to a plate. Season the chicken, toss in flour, dip into the egg, then roll in the pretzel crumbs. Place on a baking tray, drizzle over the oil and bake for 35 mins until crisp and tender.
• In a small bowl, mix the mustard, honey and vinegar. Reserve 4 of the chicken thighs for lunch. (You can use them in the Caesar salad with crispy chicken recipe, look at 'Goes well with...') Serve the remaining chicken with the sauce and green veg or salad and potatoes.
