Pretzel Chicken Bites With Mustard Chipotle Sauce

I posted this a few nights ago, when we had it for dinner.  I don't know what my problem is, but it never appeared in the forum in spite of my getting the "Success!" banner.  Gremlins? Sun Spots?   Anyway, with new potatoes, cole slaw and an ear of corn, this is a delicious meal.  (And, I understand, this recipe is from Weight Watchers.)

 

Pretzel Chicken Bites With Mustard Chipotle Sauce

 

2 oz pretzels 
1/3 cup fat free mayonnaise
2 Tablespoons whole-grain Dijon mustard
2 teaspoons chipotle pepper sauce (Tabasco makes one)
1 teaspoon red-wine vinegar
¼ teaspoon ground pepper 
¾ lb skinless boneless chicken breasts, cut into 24 chunks

 

Preheat oven to 400º.  Spray a shallow baking pan w/ Pam.


Finely chop pretzels—in food processor, or in a plastic bag & w/ a rolling pin.


Combine mayonnaise, mustard, pepper sauce, vinegar & pepper in small bowl.

 

Put chicken in medium bowl, toss w/ 2 Tablespoons of the sauce to coat.  Add to the plastic bag w/ the pretzel bits, coat evenly.


Put chicken in pan in 1 layer. Spray lightly w/ Pam. Bake about 15 min. Serve w/remaining sauce.

 

Cook's note: I make 50% more sauce, and make it a bit spicier.

Strive for respect instead of attention. It lasts longer.

Re: Pretzel Chicken Bites With Mustard Chipotle Sauce

No, you are absolutely right you did post this IamMrsG.  I distinctly remember seeing it.  I know we are missing posts from before the conversion but this is troubling . . . thanks for re-posting as it's a great recipe!
