Description

We drizzled Jillena's 5-star-rated Yummy Honey Mustard Dressing over a bed of fresh greens and air-fried chicken strips to create this flavorful main dish salad.

Ingredients

2 tablespoons olive oil
1 1/2 cups panko bread crumbs
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
cooking spray
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
2 large eggs
2 tablespoons water
1 1/2 pounds skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
8 cups mixed spring salad greens
2 large carrots, peeled and sliced diagonally
1 cup sliced radishes
3/4 cup mayonnaise
3 tablespoons prepared yellow mustard
3 tablespoons honey
4 teaspoons Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon lemon juice

Directions

1 Heat oil in an extra-large skillet over medium heat. Add panko and garlic powder. Cook, stirring, until toasted, 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer to a shallow dish and let cool, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in parsley.
2 Coat an air fryer basket with cooking spray and preheat air fryer to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
3 Meanwhile, in another shallow dish, stir together flour, salt, and pepper. In a third shallow dish, whisk together eggs and water.
4 Cut chicken breasts lengthwise into 1x3-inch strips. Dip chicken strips into flour mixture, then egg mixture, then panko mixture to coat.
5 Working in batches, add chicken to the preheated air fryer. Cook, turning once, until an instant-read thermometer inserted into thickest parts registers 165 degrees F (74 degrees C), 5 to 7 minutes. Transfer to a plate; cover and keep warm.
6 Toss together salad greens, carrots, and radishes in a large bowl.
7 Stir mayonnaise, yellow mustard, honey, Dijon mustard, and lemon juice for dressing together in a small bowl.
8 Divide salad among plates, top with chicken, and drizzle with dressing.
