HONEY-MUSTARD CHICKEN TENDERS



Honey-Mustard Chicken Tenders image

The combination of honey and mustard has been around since ancient Egypt and Rome, and midcentury American cooks used it in any number of dishes, from baked chicken to glazed ham. But it wasn't until the 1970s and '80s, when restaurants started pairing the zesty sauce with breaded pieces of boneless chicken, that it became wildly popular. As a coating for chicken, honey mustard not only tastes great, but the acidity in the mustard helps keep the meat juicy. For hot honey mustard chicken tenders, add 1/2 teaspoon cayenne to the honey mustard. For an even quicker dinner, do steps 1 and 2 up to a day ahead. (Refrigerate the chicken and store the toasted panko at room temperature.) Eat the tenders dipped into barbecue sauce, hot sauce, ketchup, or - you guessed it - more honey mustard.

Provided by Ali Slagle

Categories     dinner, poultry, main course

Time 45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 cups panko bread crumbs
1/4 cup neutral oil (such as grapeseed or canola)
Kosher salt (such as Diamond Crystal)
3 tablespoons honey
3 tablespoons Dijon mustard
1 1/2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts or tenders
Freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 450 degrees. Line a sheet pan with parchment paper or foil. Add the panko and oil to the sheet pan, season with 1/2 teaspoon salt, then stir with a fork until evenly moistened. Shake into an even layer. Toast in the oven, stirring with the fork halfway through, until golden brown, 3 to 5 minutes. Pick up the parchment and use it to funnel the toasted panko into a shallow bowl or pie plate. Set aside to cool. (Reserve the lined sheet pan.)
  • In a medium bowl, stir together the honey and mustard. Pat the chicken dry, then pound with a mallet or heavy skillet into an even thickness (about ⅓-inch thick). Slice lengthwise into 1-inch-thick strips. Cut any long strips in half crosswise. (If using chicken tenders, no need to pound or slice.) Season with salt and pepper, then add to the honey mustard and toss to combine.
  • Working with one strip at a time and removing dripping honey mustard, add the chicken to the panko mixture and use your fingers to pack the panko onto all sides of the chicken. (To avoid a big mess, designate one wet hand for touching the chicken and one dry hand for pressing in the panko.) Transfer to the lined sheet pan and repeat.
  • Transfer to the oven and bake, removing from the oven to flip halfway through, until the chicken is cooked through and the panko is browned, 10 to 15 minutes.

Tips:

  • Use fresh chicken tenders: Fresh chicken tenders will give you the best results, as they are more tender and flavorful than frozen tenders.
  • Marinate the chicken tenders: Marinating the chicken tenders in the marmalade glaze for at least 30 minutes will help to infuse them with flavor and make them even more tender.
  • Use a good quality marmalade: The quality of the marmalade you use will make a big difference in the flavor of the chicken tenders. Look for a marmalade that is made with real fruit and has a strong flavor.
  • Cook the chicken tenders over medium heat: Cooking the chicken tenders over medium heat will help to prevent them from drying out. Do not overcook the tenders, or they will become tough.
  • Serve the chicken tenders immediately: Chicken tenders are best served immediately after they are cooked, when they are hot and crispy.

Conclusion:

Marmalade glazed chicken tenders are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or main course. They are perfect for parties or potlucks, and they can be enjoyed by people of all ages. With their sweet and tangy flavor, marmalade glazed chicken tenders are sure to be a hit at your next gathering.
