Pecan Crusted Chicken Fingers

These turned out sooooo yummy!  I love how crispy the chicken tenders were without any need to fry!  They didn't even need a dipping sauce in my mind.  My only regret is that I didn't get a nicer picture of them!  Next time... 

Pecan Crusted Chicken Strips

12 chicken tenders
2/3 c. honey
1/3 c. mustard
1/4 c. olive oil
1 tsp. salt
1 tsp. garlic powder
1 tsp. black pepper
1 c. panko
1/2 c. pecans

Combine honey, mustard, oil, salt, garlic, and pepper.  Pour into large freezer bag and add chicken breasts.

Combine panko and pecans in a smaller bag.  Freeze the two bags together.

To serve, thaw chicken completely in the refrigerator.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Place breadcrumb mixture on a plate.  Shake excess sauce off chicken, roll in breadcrumbs, and place on greased baking sheet.

Bake 30 minutes.
