Equipment

  • oven
  • baking sheet
  • Mixing Bowls
  • Parchment paper

Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound chicken tenders
  • ½ cup honey
  • ¼ cup Dijon mustard
  • 1 cup breadcrumbs (panko or regular)
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • cooking spray or olive oil for greasing

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
  • In a bowl, mix together the honey and Dijon mustard until well combined. Reserve half of the sauce for serving.
  • Pat the chicken tenders dry with paper towels. This helps the coating stick better.
  • In another bowl, combine the breadcrumbs, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper.
  • Dip each chicken tender into the honey mustard mixture, allowing excess to drip off. Then, coat it in the breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently to adhere.
  • Place the coated chicken tenders onto the prepared baking sheet. Make sure they are spaced apart for even cooking.
  • Spray the tops of the chicken tenders lightly with cooking spray or drizzle with olive oil. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and golden brown. Internal temperature should reach 165°F (74°C).
  • Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes. Serve with the reserved honey mustard sauce for dipping.
