I love love love this recipe.  And so does everyone else I've made it for. The chicken is juicy with a crunchy crust that everyone loves. The dipping sauce is delicious and I end up saving whats left of it to put on other things.

Ingredients:
1/2 cup yellow or dijon mustard
1/2 cup honey
About 3 tablespoons finely chopped fresh chives
1 tablespoon hot sauce
2 eggs
1 1/2 pounds chicken breast tenders
Salt and pepper
1/2 cup slivered, sliced or blanched whole almonds
1 cup panko or plain breadcrumbs
1/4 cup sesame seeds
Vegetable oil, for frying

Directions:

In a bowl, combine the mustard, honey, chives and hot sauce.

Separate out half of the sauce and reserve. Beat the eggs into the remaining sauce. 

Using a food processor, grind the nuts. 

Combine with the panko and sesame seeds. 

In a large skillet, heat a layer of oil over medium-high heat. Coat the chicken tenders with the egg sauce and then the nut-breadcrumb mixture and fry, turning, until deep golden.

Serve with the honey mustard sauce, which is so delicious.

This dish is one of my favorites to make because it is very simple and the flavor is great.  

I promise, you won't be disappointed :]
