Baked (not fried) Crispy Panko Crusted Chicken

Craving something crunchy?? I was tonight!  After this recipe you will cure your fix for deep fried chicken.  This recipe is a lot lighter and there is no oil!  So tasty.



Ingredients:
4 chicken thighs (next time I would butcher a chicken and use all the different parts)
1 cup Panko crumbs
1 egg
a splash of milk
4 tbsps of dijon ( I always use Stone Ground Prepared Mustard)
1 tbsp honey
salt and pepper








Directions:
1.   Preheat oven to 425
2.   Cut excess fat from chicken thighs and season with salt and pepper.
3.   Mix egg, milk and 1 Tbsp of Dijon and put in a bowl.
4.   Put the Panko crumbs in a bowl.
5.   Prepare a cooking sheet with tinfoil.  I used nonstick tinfoil so I didn't have to use any oil.
6.   Dip each piece of chicken in the egg and then coat in panko.  Place on cooking sheet.
7.   Place in oven for 20-25 minutes.
8.   Mix remaining dijon and honey.  Put in microwave for 8 seconds.  Now you have an easy dipping sauce.
