Parmesan Sesame Chicken Strips (and Honey Mustard Dipping Sauce) Recipe (1)

These Parmesan Sesame Chicken Strips are our grown-up version of chicken nuggets. They are baked to crispy perfection. We love the delicious homemade honey mustard sauce for dipping the strips. We think your family will love them too.

These chicken strips are so easy to make. You can’t go wrong. If you like them a little bit crispier, just leave them in the oven for a few extra minutes.

Do chicken breasts work best for these parmesan sesame chicken strips?

We like using chicken breasts for these Parmesan Sesame Chicken Strips. We buy them in big family size bags in the freezer section, and then thaw just what we will need for recipes. Chicken breasts are the best price.

Chicken tenderloins will also work great in this recipe. You may still need to slice them into a few strips.

Boneless skinless chicken thighs will work in this recipe, too. We often buy whatever chicken is on sale. So know that any of these options will taste great.

Can you substitute the Ritz crackers in the crumb coating?

We love using Ritz crackers in this recipe because it gives a delicious buttery taste. The buttery taste adds so much to the chicken strips.

You could definitely use other dry ingredients in place of the Ritz crackers. The taste will vary a little. Here are a few ideas.

  1. Crushed Corn Flakes
  2. Bread Crumbs
  3. Whole Wheat Panko Crumbs
  4. Saltine Crackers (crushed)

Do these Parmesan Sesame chicken strips freeze well?

These chicken strips freeze well. A freezer bag is all you need.

The easiest way to freeze them is to lay the cooled chicken strips on wax or parchment paper. Lay them in the freezer until frozen.

Then transfer them into the freezer bag. This will keep all of the crunchy coating in place as you transfer them into the bag.

Then just thaw and reheat when ready to eat.
