Honey Mustard Pecan Crusted Chicken
I am a sucker for good crunchy chicken nuggets or tenders...but of course those are typically fried. This baked version is so much healthier for you and has a little extra kick thanks to the mustard and cayenne pepper in the coating! Just adjust the cayenne to your liking or that of your little ones!
