Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 200 ̊. Set a wire rack on a baking sheet. Season the chicken cutlets on both sides with salt and pepper, using about 1 teaspoon of each total.
- Stir together the mustard, mayonnaise and honey in a small bowl. Remove 1 cup of the mixture to a shallow bowl, reserving the rest for serving.
- Place the flour in another shallow bowl. Spread the pretzels on a plate. Coat each piece of chicken in the flour, then quickly dunk in the honey-mustard mixture and then coat in the pretzels. Set on a large plate.
- Heat 2 tablespoons each butter and olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-low heat until the butter is melted and the oil is hot. Add 3 pieces of the crusted chicken and cook until golden brown and cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Remove the chicken to the rack and place in the oven.
- Repeat with the remaining butter, oil and chicken. Add the chicken to the pan in the oven to keep warm.
- Bring 1 inch of water to a simmer in a large saucepan fitted with a steamer basket. Add the broccoli, cover and cook until bright green and just tender, 8 to 10 minutes. Season with the remaining 1/2 teaspoon each salt and pepper. Serve the chicken and broccoli with the reserved honey-mustard sauce for dipping.

Tips:
- To achieve a crispy pretzel crust, ensure your chicken is completely dry before coating it in the pretzel crumb mixture.
- For a more flavorful crust, use a variety of pretzels, such as honey mustard, garlic, or sour cream and onion.
- If you don't have buttermilk, you can make your own by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar to regular milk and letting it sit for 5 minutes.
- To ensure even cooking, use a meat thermometer to check that the internal temperature of the chicken has reached 165°F (74°C) before removing it from the oven.
- For a healthier version, use whole-wheat pretzels and bake the chicken instead of frying it.
