Crispy Pretzel Chicken.

Doesn’t that sound really good?

It is.

Tender chicken coated with salty crisp pretzels and dipped in the tangy-sweet honey mustard sauce, is flat out fantastic. I would probably double the sauce ingredients next time.

Crispy Pretzel Chicken With Honey-Mustard Sauce

Ingredients:

100g salted pretzels
12 boneless, skinless chicken thighs
flour, for dusting
2 eggs, beaten
1 Tbs olive oil
100ml wholegrain mustard
4 Tbs honey
1 tsp white wine vinegar

Directions:

1. Heat oven to 200℃/400℉.

2. Crush the pretzels in a food processor or in a plastic bag using a rolling pin. Transfer pretzel crumbs to a plate. Season the chicken, toss in flour, dip into egg, then roll in the pretzel crumbs. Place on a baking tray, drizzle over the oil and bake for 35 minutes until crisp and tender.

3. In a small bowl, mix the mustard, honey and vinegar. Serve the chicken with the sauce.

Deep Sea Diver have a new album out (get it here), but I am hopelessly in love with this song from 2009’s ‘New Caves’ EP.

Jessica Dobson has such a cool voice. Soft but not, at the same time. Draws me right in.

Check out Deep Sea Diver on the band’s Website, where you can link to buy the music.
