1
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
2
Pound/flatten chicken breasts until about 1/4 inch thick - and here's an easy way to pound a chicken breast: put it in a Ziplock bag first, then flatten with the mallet or whatever you're using. It keeps splatters at a minimum. (Flattening the breasts makes them even more tender!).
3
Combine mustard, mayonnaise, honey, cayenne pepper, garlic, green onion, and salt and pepper to taste.
4
Set half of mixture aside to be used as dipping sauce.
5
Coat chicken completely in remaining mustard mixture, and then dredge in pretzel crumbs.
6
Place coated chicken on baking sheet and bake for about 30 minutes or until chicken is cooked through and juices run clear.
