Preheat the oven to 425°F. Line a half-sheet pan with parchment paper and lightly coat it with cooking spray. Set up three shallow bowls: one with the flour, garlic powder, smoked paprika, half the salt, and the pepper mixed together; one with the beaten egg white; and one with the panko breadcrumbs mixed with the remaining salt.
Toss the chicken pieces in the flour mixture to coat, then dip each piece into the egg white, and finally press into the panko until well coated on all sides. Place the nuggets on the prepared baking pan, leaving space between each. Lightly spray the tops of the nuggets with cooking spray.
Bake the chicken for 12 to 15 minutes, flipping once halfway through, until the breading is crisp and golden brown. Done when opaque in the center and 165°F.
While the chicken bakes, whisk the Dijon mustard, honey, and light mayonnaise in a small bowl until smooth. Serve the hot nuggets right away with the honey mustard sauce on the side for dipping.
