Honey-Dijon Pistachio Crusted Chicken Strips
  1. 1

    Preheat the oven to 500 degrees F (260 degrees C). Lightly grease a baking sheet with cooking spray.

  2. 2

    Mix the pistachios and bread crumbs in a shallow bowl. In a separate bowl, whisk the Dijon mustard, olive oil, honey, salt, and pepper until smooth.

  3. 3

    Dip the chicken into the Dijon mixture to coat, then dredge it in the pistachio mixture until covered. Arrange on the prepared baking sheet.

  4. 4

    Put the baking sheet in the preheated oven, then reduce the oven temperature to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Bake until the chicken is no longer pink, the juices run clear, and the coating is golden brown, about 20 minutes.
