Ingredients & Directions

Directions

Chicken

6
2
eggs
1 cup
all purpose flour
1 cup
pecans
3/4 cup
panko breadcrumbs
3/4 cup
parmesan cheese
salt & pepper, to taste
  1. Preheat oven to 375°F.
  2. Place pecans in a food processor and pulse until they are small pieces, but not dust/super fine (you want texture left on them and not making pecan flour).
  3. Add chopped pecans to a bowl with breadcrumbs and parmesan cheese.
  4. Set up 3 deep dishes or shallow bowls for a breading station.
  5. Place flour in the first bowl. In the second bowl, whisk 2 eggs with about 2 tablespoons of water. Add the pecan cheese breading mixture to the 3 dish.
  6. Season chicken pieces with salt and pepper.
  7. Coat the chicken pieces completely in the flour and shake off excess.
  8. Next, dip the flour coated chicken into the egg wash.
  9. Finish by placing the flour and egg wash coated chicken pieces in the pecan cheese bread crumb mixture and press coating firmly on the chicken.
  10. Place the breaded chicken portions on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  11. Bake for about 20-25 minutes or until the internal temperature of each chicken piece has reached 165°F and the crust is crunchy and brown.
  12. Great served over a bed of dressed green salad with shaved parmesan cheese and toasted pecan halves. Add seasonal fruit or dried fruit for additional layers of flavor and texture.
