A pecan coating adds a pleasant crunch to plain chicken. My family likes dipping the crispy chicken pieces in the easy-to-make sauce.—Bonnie Jean Lintick, Kathryn, Alberta
Ingredients:
1/3 cup finely chopped pecans
1/3 cup dry bread crumbs
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon salt
4 boneless skinless chicken breast halves (4 ounces each)
3 tablespoons dijon mustard
maple-dijon sauce:
1/4 cup maple syrup
1 tablespoon dijon mustard
Directions:
1. In a shallow bowl, combine the pecans, bread crumbs, thyme, paprika and salt. Place Dijon mustard in another shallow bowl. Coat chicken with mustard, then roll in pecan mixture.
2. Place in a greased 13-in. x 9-in. baking dish. Bake, uncovered, at 375° for 30-35 minutes or until juices run clear. In a small bowl, combine sauce ingredients; serve with chicken. Yield: 4 servings.
