Chicken Tenders with Honey Mustard Dip

These crispy, honey mustard-coated chicken tenders are perfect for a quick and easy meal. Coated in a flavorful cornflake crumb mixture, they can be made in the air fryer or oven for a golden, crunchy finish.

Ingredients

• 1 lb chicken tenders
• 1/2 cup flour
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 1/2 tsp pepper
• 1/2 cup milk
• 1 cup breadcrumbs
• For the Honey Mustard Dip:1/4 cup mayonnaise
• 1/4 cup Dijon mustard
• 1/4 cup honey

Directions

1. In a mixing bowl, combine the yogurt, mustard, honey, and mayonnaise, stirring until well-mixed. Add the raw chicken tenders to the bowl and toss to coat. Cover the bowl or transfer to a sealed container and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to a day.
2. When ready to cook, mix the cornflake crumbs, dry mustard, parsley, paprika, salt, and pepper in a shallow dish until evenly combined.
3. Take each honey mustard-coated chicken strip and press it into the cornflake mixture, flipping to ensure both sides are evenly coated.
4. Air Fryer: Arrange the coated chicken tenders in the air fryer basket in a single layer, leaving space between each one. If your basket fits six tenders, you may need to cook them in two batches (12 tenders total). Lightly spray the tenders with cooking spray. Set the air fryer to 390°F and cook for 5-6 minutes. Flip the tenders and cook for another 5-6 minutes until fully cooked.
5. Oven: Preheat the oven to 375°F and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. Arrange the coated chicken tenders on the sheet, spray the tops with cooking spray, and bake for 18-20 minutes, or until fully cooked.
6. TO MAKE YOUR HOT MUSTARD DIPPING SAUCE :In a small mixing bowl, whisk together your honey and mustard. The ratio I used was for a more honey-based sauce. If you want it creamier, make your mixture with more mustard than honey. Taste along the way until it's perfect for you.
