• For the chicken: Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Set a wire rack in a rimmed baking sheet and spray the rack with nonstick spray. Set aside.
• Combine the mayo, mustard, Parmesan, garlic powder and a few turns of pepper in a large bowl. Add the pretzels to a separate bowl or large shallow dish.

Spray the chicken with cooking spray and bake until fully cooked, with an internal temperature of 165 degrees F, 12 to 18 minutes.

PRETZEL CRUSTED CHICKEN STRIPS RECIPE - (4.4/5)

Steps:

• In a food processor, pulse pretzels until finely ground. Transfer to a deep bowl. Slice a chicken breast into thin strips. Heat a large frying pan with oil about ½-inch up the sides. Dredge the chicken strips in flour, milk and then pretzel crumbs. Fry until golden and crispy on one side, then gently turn over and finish cooking the other side. Cooking time will depend on how thick you slice your chicken. Transfer to a plate prepared with a few sheets of paper towels to absorb the excess oil.

PRETZEL-CRUSTED CHICKEN TENDERS

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.
