Sesame seed Chicken strips

I made this one quite a while ago and loved it. I didn't like it as much this time, but I think I might've been pregnant last time (which for me makes a huge difference.) Aaron still liked it, so it's a keeper. It is a bit messy to make, but yummy. It isn't the most flavorful chicken, so I would recommend having something with some flavor with it, be it a flavored rice, noodle, etc.

Ingredients

1 cup mayonnaise
2 tsp dried minced onion
2 tsp ground mustard
1 cup crushed butter-flavored crackers
½ cup sesame seeds
2 lbs boneless skinless chicken breasts

Sauce:
½ cup mayonnaise
1 tbsp honey

In a bowl, combine mayonnaise, onion and mustard. In another bowl, combine the crackers and sesame seeds. Cut chicken lengthwise into ¼ inch strips. Dip strips into mayonnaise mixture, then into the sesame seed mixture. Place in a single layer on a large greased baking sheet. Bake at 425 for 15-18 minutes. or until juices run clear. Combine sauce ingredients and serve with chicken strips.

I think that the type of mayo you use can really influence the flavor of this recipe, so use the good stuff. (That was probably my problem.) You might also cut the sauce recipe in half if you don't think you'll use a ton of it.
