Just like Chick-Fil-A, but it tastes 10000x better! And the homemade honey mustard is out of this world!

INGREDIENTS:

• 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch chunks

DIRECTIONS:

• To make the honey mustard, whisk together mayonnaise, honey, mustards and lemon juice in a small bowl; set aside.
• In a large bowl, combine chicken, pickle juice and 1/2 cup milk; marinate for at least 30 minutes. Drain well.
• Heat peanut oil in a large skillet over medium high heat.
• In a large bowl, whisk together remaining 1 cup milk and egg. Stir in chicken and gently toss to combine; drain excess milk mixture.
