Honey-Pecan Crusted Chicken Tenders

Inspiration:
A Cooking Light recipe featured on the blog Pleasure Cooker

Ingredients:

• salt and pepper
  
• boneless, skinless chicken tenders
  
• 1/4 cup honey
  
• 2 tbsp Dijon mustard
  
• 3/4 tsp paprika
  
• 1/8 tsp garlic powder
  
• 1 1/4 cups finely crushed cornflakes
  
• 1/2 cup finely chopped pecans
  
• canola oil
  

Instructions:

1. Preheat oven to 400.
   
2. Sprinkle salt and pepper over chicken.
   
3. Combine honey, mustard, paprika and garlic in a small bowl.
   
4. Combine cornflakes and pecans in a shallow dish (I crushed up the cornflakes and pecans together in my mini food processor). Brush both sides of chicken with honey mixture; dredge in cornflake mixture.
   
5. Place chicken on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Lightly coat the chicken with canola oil, applied with a pastry brush.
   
6. Cook at 400 for 15 minutes or until done.

Notes:
The original recipe uses cooking spray, but I don't, so I replaced it with canola oil.
This was very good! I am going to be making it again soon. It was very easy.

("Tastes like McDonald's chicken nuggets dipped in honey!")
Apparently a good thing?
