There’s something about a simple breaded chicken. Only a few ingredients are needed to made something tastylike this Maple Pretzel Chicken.
However, if you change up the ingredients you use to bread the chicken in, you can end up with something amazing. Today’s recipe adds maple syrup to the egg used to bread the chicken and then the actual breading is crushed up pretzels.
You end up with the combination of sweet and salty that I love. So tasty, so easy. It’s ready to eat in 20 minutes!
