Crunchy panko outside, juicy chicken within and a sweet, tangy dip for the kids to fight over: Sauce Martin’s Californian mustard, made with French mustard seeds and a touch of honey, is both the coating and the sauce.

Serves 4 · 35 min

  1. Coat 1 1/2 lb (700 g) chicken tenders in 3 tbsp of the Californian mustard, then roll them in 1 1/2 cups (90 g) panko mixed with 1/2 tsp paprika.
  2. Arrange on an oiled baking sheet, drizzle with a little oil and bake at 425°F (220°C) for 15 to 18 minutes, until golden and cooked through (165°F / 74°C inside).
  3. Meanwhile, stir 1/4 cup (60 g) of the mustard with 1 tbsp honey and 2 tbsp mayonnaise for dipping.
  4. Serve the tenders hot with the dipping sauce and carrot sticks.
