Pretzel Coated Boneless Wings With Beer Cheese Sauce And Liquid Gold Honey Mustard Food

PRETZEL-COATED BONELESS WINGS WITH BEER CHEESE SAUCE AND LIQUID GOLD HONEY MUSTARD

Steps:

• For the liquid gold honey mustard sauce: Combine the mustard, vinegar, honey, Worcestershire sauce, vanilla, hot sauce and pepper in a small saucepan and cook over medium heat, whisking constantly, until boiling, about 5 minutes. Reduce the heat to low and lightly simmer until the sugar dissolves, about 5 minutes.
• For the chicken: If you're baking the chicken, preheat the oven to 450 degrees F and fit a wire rack inside a large rimmed baking sheet and coat with nonstick cooking spray. If using a deep-fryer, preheat the oil to 350 degrees F.
• Place the chicken in a resealable plastic bag with 1/2 cup of the Liquid Gold Honey Mustard Sauce. The chicken can be dredged immediately, or it can be marinated for at least 2 hours or up to 8 hours, if time allows.
• Put the pretzels in a food processor and pulse until finely chopped, about 10 pulses.
• Prepare your dredging station. Place the flour in a shallow bowl. Next to that, a second shallow bowl with the eggs, and next to that, a third shallow bowl with the pulverized pretzels.
• Remove the chicken pieces from the mustard sauce, season them with salt and pepper, lightly dust them with the flour, then dip them in the eggs, then dip them in the pulverized pretzels until they are entirely coated.
• If baking, place the chicken on the prepared wire rack and bake until the internal temperature registers 165 degrees F on an instant-read thermometer, 12 to 14 minutes.
• If using a deep-fryer, place the chicken gently into the oil and fry in two or three batches until golden and the internal temperature registers 165 degrees F on an instant-read thermometer, 4 to 5 minutes. Remove with a spider and drain on a paper towel-lined plate.
• For the beer cheese sauce: Heat a medium saucepan over low heat. Add the evaporated milk, lager, mustard and Worcestershire sauce and whisk together until uniform and smooth. Toss the grated cheeses and cornstarch together in a bowl until the cheese is completely coated. Whisk the cheese into the milk mixture and cook, whisking constantly, until the cheese melts completely and the sauce is silky and smooth, about 5 minutes.
• To serve, top the chicken with the chopped parsley and serve with the remaining Liquid Gold Honey Mustard Sauce and the Beer Cheese Sauce for dipping.

PRETZEL-CRUSTED CHICKEN FINGERS WITH HONEY MUSTARD DIPPING SAUCE

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.

HONEY MUSTARD PRETZEL-COATED CHICKEN FINGERS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Season chicken strips with salt and pepper. Set aside.
• In a large bowl, combine honey mustard with egg substitute and whisk well. Submerge the chicken and set aside to marinate for at least 5 minutes.
• Meanwhile, place pretzels in sealable plastic bag, seal, and finely crush through the bag with a meat mallet or other heavy utensil. Add sugar, reseal, and shake to mix. Spread the mixture out on a large plate or in a large dish. Set aside.
• Spray a baking sheet with nonstick spray.
• Using tongs, transfer chicken strips to the pretzel-sugar mixture and thoroughly coat. Then transfer them to the baking sheet. (Discard excess mustard-egg mixture.) Mist the tops of the strips with nonstick spray.
• Bake in the oven for about 20 minutes, flipping chicken halfway through baking, until the chicken is cooked through.
• Eat and enjoy!
