Preheat oven to 400° and grease two large baking sheets with oil. Season chicken with salt and pepper. Add eggs to a medium shallow bowl. In a separate shallow bowl, whisk together bread crumbs, cornmeal, Parmesan, and cayenne. Season with salt. Working in batches, add chicken to eggs then dredge in bread crumb mixture until fully coated. Spread chicken in even layers on prepared baking sheets. Bake chicken until golden and cooked through, flipping halfway through, about 25 minutes.

Meanwhile, make dipping sauce: In a small bowl, mix together mayonnaise, mustard, honey, and cayenne until fully combined. Serve chicken with dipping sauce.
