Ingredients

16 chicken tenders (approximately 1 ounce each, 16 ounces total)
1 cup Fisher® Chef’s Naturals Pecan Cookie Pieces
1/3 cup breadcrumbs
2 eggs, beaten
3 tablespoons olive oil
4 tablespoons scallions, chopped (optional)
1 tablespoon seafood, poultry, salad, and meat seasoning
Dill Mustard Dipping Sauce:
1/3 cup mayonnaise
1/3 cup dijon mustard
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 tablespoon mustard seeds, crushed
1 teaspoon fresh dill, chopped

Directions

Preheat oven to 375°F.
Combine pecans with the breadcrumbs and Old Bay seasoning in a bowl; mix well and set aside.
Beat the eggs in a large bowl and dip each piece of chicken into the egg mixture.
Using one dry hand press both sides of the chicken into the pecan crumb mixture. Place on a dish until all tenders are breaded.
Place the chicken on a sheet pan, gently shaking the excess crumbs off the chicken.
Lightly drizzle the oil on both sides of the chicken pieces and place in the oven to bake until cooked — about 20 minutes.
Place mayonnaise, lemon juice, mustard seeds and dill in a small bowl and whisk well to combine.
Place the pecan chicken tenders on a platter. Sprinkle with scallions (optional) and extra chopped pecans (optional). Serve with the dill mustard sauce.
