Get ready to fight over a plate of perfectly crispy popcorn chicken! We toss tender chicken strips in both cornstarch and toasted panko for extra crunch, then bake to a juicy crisp. Multiple dips in the creamy BBQ honey mustard sauce is strongly encouraged. Serve alongside a dollop of potato or macaroni salad for an easy lunch, add to an appetizer spread on game day, or enjoy on its own as a hearty snack.

Serves: 2

Cook Time: 25 minutes

Ingredients:

10 oz of pkg chicken breast strips
2 (¼ oz) cornstarch
2 oz of panko
1 oz of mayonnaise
1 Dijon mustard
2 (½ oz) honey
2 oz of barbecue sauce
neutral oil
kosher salt & ground pepper
1 large egg
apple cider vinegar (or distilled white vinegar)

Instructions:

Preheat oven to 450°F with a rack in the upper third. Generously oil a rimmed baking sheet. Pat chicken dry and cut any large strips into bite-size pieces; toss with all of the cornstarch and season with salt and pepper.
Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a medium skillet over medium-high. Add panko and a pinch each of salt and pepper; cook, stirring, until golden brown, 2-3 minutes. Transfer to a shallow dish. In a small bowl, beat 1 large egg and a pinch each of salt and pepper. Dip chicken in egg, letting excess drip back into bowl. Dredge in panko, pressing to help breading adhere.
Place chicken on prepared baking sheet; drizzle with oil. Bake on upper oven rack until chicken is golden brown and cooked through, flipping halfway, 15-18 minutes (watch closely as ovens vary).
Meanwhile, in a small bowl, stir together mayonnaise, mustard, all of the honey, 1 tablespoon barbecue sauce (save rest for own use), and ½ teaspoon vinegar; season to taste with salt and pepper. Serve popcorn chicken with BBQ honey mustard sauce alongside for dipping. Enjoy!
