Receta Honey Pecan Chicken
I looked around for some ideas for recipes and finally cobbled together based on one I found at CDKitchen.com. I toyed with a bit to add my own spin. Hope you enjoy it!
Ingredients:
- 2 Boneless, Skinless Chicken Breasts
- 1 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 cup ground pecans
- handful of crushed tortilla chips
- 1 large egg
- 1-2 tablespoons heavy cream
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon ground tellicherry pepper (or black pepper)
Directions:
Marinate chicken in salt water in refrigerator for at least 45 minutes to 1 hour. Remove from refrigerator and pat dry.
Preheat oven to 375°F. Grind pecans and tortilla chips into a meal. Beat cream with honey, then add beaten egg, salt and fresh ground pepper. Put egg wash in one shallow bowl, and pecan/tortilla meal in another. Dip each chicken breast in the egg wash, then into the pecan meal and pat the meal into the breast to form a crust. Place the breasts in a shallow baking pan that has been sprayed with cooking spray, and bake for 35 minutes at 375F, or until the breasts are done.
