Maple Pecan Crusted Chicken
Again, a simple recipe terribly while having sufficient character to impress. The chicken breasts are coated with a mixture of chopped pecans, oregano and Parmesan. The breasts are browned in pan and then baked. The result is very tasty. Pecans release their fragrance in the heat and offers a pleasant crunchy chicken. Parmesan cheese acts as glue to seal the pecans and chicken. This has the effect of serving a very juicy breast. Oregano is timid but noticeable. I recommend serving these culinary jewels with a little honey Dijon sauce and accompany small steamed vegetables.
.
pecan crust is very fragile in skillet. To handle the chicken, use a large spatula and proceed gently. If your non-stick pan is too small, you are better to cook your chicken in two pans or in two stages. This way, you will have enough space to handle your chicken.
