Candy maple with the right mixture of creamy Dijon mustard, spices, and sea salt. A yummy weeknight dinner to serve as much as household and buddies this season.

Rising up, my dad would make his potato chip rooster for dinner a couple of times every week. And Mother would typically do a easy roasted rooster with a maple Dijon herb sauce.

We’d all the time have rice on the facet. And if it was Sunday night time, Mother would possibly add some selfmade bread. Perhaps some broccoli too, however I’m going to be sincere I don’t bear in mind a variety of inexperienced issues on the desk as a child. I assume that’s what occurs if you develop up with 5 brothers. You eat a variety of rooster and taco dinners.

Which I’m not likely complaining about, I like a rooster and rice dish, and tacos are my favourite.

Now that I prepare dinner, I like recreating among the dinners we’d eat rising up, solely I like so as to add extra taste. This rooster is a mix of Dad’s potato chip rooster, Mother’s maple Dijon rooster, after which, everybody’s favourite, scorching honey rooster.

The breading comes from my dad, the sauce from my mother, and I stole the bottom recipe from the scorching honey rooster.

It turned out so fantastic. It’s the maple Dijon sauce, it’s SO GOOD, I can’t wait so that you can attempt it!

Listed below are the easy particulars

Step 1: the coating is essential

Cornflakes are the star, they offer the rooster that good crunch. I’ve examined different cereals, however everybody within the household agrees cornflakes have one of the best style and crunch.

I exploit Nature’s Path, Natural Corn Flakes Cereal, which is of course gluten-free and non-GMO. I get them organized on-line, however in case you’re searching for one thing in-store, Entire Meals and Dealer Joe’s are each good choices.

Or you realize, a field of Kellogs works in a pinch too. 

Step 2: crunch the cornflakes

You are able to do this by hand, however I do choose to make use of a meals processor or a mix to get a extremely advantageous crumb. Then I all the time season the crumbs with paprika (smoked is very yummy), onion powder, and garlic powder.

Then add parmesan cheese. It might sound odd, however the cheese provides a salty taste that melts over the rooster turning into crispy because it bakes. It helps to create a rooster that’s very savory, not candy.

Step 3: dredge the rooster

I dredge the rooster by overwhelmed eggs, then by the crumbs. For a thicker coating, I’ll take the rooster and dip it again by the eggs, and the crumbs for a second time. This takes barely longer, however the thicker coating is all the time delish.

Subsequent, olive oil on the rooster to assist it crisp up. Then simply bake.

Step 4: the sauce

That is the true star of the recipe. It’s going to knock your socks off. We’re so obsessive about it.

Combine pure maple syrup (no added sugars or flavors), with a creamy Dijon mustard. Then add scorching sauce and a mixture of spices.

Identical to a scorching honey sauce, that is candy, however extra spicy than anything. The maple balances it completely, and the Dijon provides the yummiest taste.

As soon as the sauce is on the rooster, I add contemporary thyme and sea salt.

This will probably be so nice with a facet of rice or roasted candy potatoes. Very cozy and good for fall!
