Ingredients

  • 2 cups salted pretzel twists (about 3 oz.)
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 pound boneless chicken breasts, cut into 2-inch pieces

Directions

2. Combine flour and pepper in a separate bowl. Beat eggs with 1 tsp. water in a third bowl.

3. Roll a chicken piece in flour mixture until thoroughly coated. Dip in eggs, allowing excess to drip off. Transfer to pretzel mixture and turn until thoroughly coated. Place chicken on baking sheet. Repeat with remaining pieces of chicken. Bake until lightly browned, 20 to 25 minutes.
