Pretzel Crusted Chicken with Honey Mustard Arugula.

We’re obsessed with this pretzel crusted chicken! It’s super crunchy and savory, topped with an arugula salad drizzled with honey mustard vinaigrette. Plus, lots of shaved parmesan! Delish.

Just when we thought chicken cutlets couldn’t get any better!

This pretzel crusted chicken is super crunchy and savory, topped with an arugula salad dressed with honey mustard vinaigrette. It’s flavorful, filling and such an easy meal! A lovely little dish to make for dinner.

Like just look at that crunch!

This is one of those dinners I like to make when we want something simple but not too heavy. Or maybe it’s just me at home for dinner. Girl dinner for one.

Or maybe we had a late lunch and just want something light.

This fits the bill!

So, I’ve shared a few pretzel crusted chicken recipes before. Pretzel crusted chicken fingers: a major fave. And the starter to howsweeteats house sauce. 

I’ve also made some pretzel chicken salads and what not. Also with honey mustard!

And just recently: pretzel crusted buffalo chicken bites.

My method on breading the chicken has changed a little bit and oh my, these are good. I freaking LOVE the savory flavor of the chicken. It’s so crunchy and crispy.

I make the chicken just like I do my regular chicken cutlets. Right in the pan. Super crispy, thin and crunchy. Delish! 

For years I’ve been making baked parmesan chicken with arugula salad and this is just like that. 

But different! Just a little twist.

Pan-fried, pretzel crusted and topped with super tangy honey mustard arugula.

It just sounds better. And it IS a little better. More flavor, or rather… different flavor.

Yes, my honey mustard vinaigrette, the one that is straight up drinkable. It is DREAMY. It’s not a creamy honey mustard dressing (I don’t love this) or thick. It’s vinegary and briney but also sweet and mustardy. 

I also love it for dipping! (more…)
