Creating Pretzel Chicken with Mustard-Cheddar Sauce is a fun and simple process. Follow these steps for delicious results:

1. Preheat the Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 400°F (200°C).
2. Set Up Coating Station: In three separate shallow bowls, set out the flour, beaten eggs, and pretzel crumbs.
3. Prepare the Chicken: Season the chicken breasts with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika.
4. Coat the Chicken: First, dredge each chicken breast in flour, shaking off excess. Next, dip in beaten eggs, and finally coat with pretzel crumbs, pressing gently to adhere.
5. Arrange on Baking Sheet: Place the coated chicken breasts on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
6. Spray with Oil: Lightly spray the chicken with cooking spray or drizzle with a little oil to promote browning.
7. Bake the Chicken: Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through and the coating is golden brown.
8. Make the Mustard-Cheddar Sauce: In a small saucepan, combine the shredded cheddar cheese, Dijon mustard, honey, and a touch of water. Heat over low, stirring until melted and smooth.
9. Serve the Dish: Drizzle the warm Mustard-Cheddar Sauce over the baked Pretzel Chicken just before serving.

With these steps, you’ll create a gorgeous and flavorful dish that stands out at any meal.
