Pecan-Crusted Baked Chicken Breasts

A tasty way to change up your baked chicken. These are good served with honey mustard dip. I also serve a veggie or two with them.

• Ready In: 22 mins
• Serves: 4

Ingredients

• 1⁄4 cup honey
• 1⁄4 cup Dijon mustard
• 1⁄2 cup pecans, ground
• 1 1⁄3 cups panko breadcrumbs (Japanese breadcrumbs)
• 4  boneless skinless chicken breasts (about 5 oz. each)

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 450 degrees F.
2. Combine honey and mustard in a small bowl; stir well. Combine nuts and panko in a separate shallow bowl.
3. Brush each side of each chicken breast with the honey mixture. Dredge chicken in panko mixture. Press panko mixture onto chicken, so it will stick.
4. Place chicken on a baking sheet coated with cooking spray; lightly coat chicken with cooking spray.
5. Bake at 450 degrees F for about 12 minutes or until done.
