Oven Fried Chicken with Honey Mustard Sauce

Chicken:

4 boneless skinless chicken breasts

Salt and pepper to taste

2 eggs

1/4 cup milk

1 1/2 cups Panko bread crumbs (Japaneese bread crumbs)

1 teaspoon paprika

1/4 cup canola oil

1 cup flour

3/4 teaspoon garlic powder

2 Tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped

1/4 cup mayo

2 Tablespoons honey

1 Tablespoon Dijon mustard

1 Tablespoon mustard

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Line cookie sheet with parchment paper and place cooking rack, or cookie cooling rack, on top. Set aside.

To make the honey mustard sauce, combine all ingredients and whisk together in a small bowl until smooth. Set aside.

Whisk eggs and milk together in a large shallow bowl. In another shallow bowl combine Panko bread crumbs, paprika, and oil with a fork. Season with salt and pepper to taste. In a third bowl, combine flour and garlic powder.

Working with one piece of chicken at a time, season both sides of chicken with salt and pepper. Dredge chicken in flour mixture, dip in egg mixture, then dredge in bread crumb mixture, pressing to coat. Place chicken on rack on baking sheet. 

Bake at 375 degrees for 35-40 minutes, until cooke through and crust is golden brown.

Serve immediately with honey mustard sauce and garnished with fresh parsley.
