    Cut cauliflower florets into 1” pieces.

    Combine pretzel breading and 1 tsp. olive oil in a mixing bowl. Set aside.

    Combine honey and red pepper flakes (to taste) in another mixing bowl. Set aside.

    Pat chicken breasts dry, and season both sides with 1/4 tsp. salt and a pinch of pepper.

    If using pork chops, season same amount.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Chicken

    In another mixing bowl, thoroughly combine flour and 1 Tbsp. water.

    Place chicken breasts on prepared baking sheet. Brush or spoon flour-water mixture on chicken and top with pretzel breading-olive oil mixture, pressing gently to adhere.
