Pistachio Crusted Chicken
"I had this chicken at an Arizona hotel luncheon, and I loved it so much, I decided to try to re-create it at home."
- Ready In:
- 40mins
- Ingredients:
- 4
- Yields:
-
4 breasts
- Serves:
- 4
ingredients
- 1⁄2 cup shelled pistachios
- 3 tablespoons whole grain mustard (make sure it is gluten free)
- 1⁄2 cup white wine
- 4 whole boneless skinless chicken breasts
directions
- 1. In a food processor, finely grind the pistachios, taking caution to not turn it into pistachio butter. Transfer the pistachios into a shallow bowl or plate.
- 2. Combine the whole grain mustard with the wine in a shallow bowl or pie plate.
- 3. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
- 4. Pound the chicken breasts until they are 1/2" evenly. Salt and pepper each side.
- 5. Dip the chicken into the mustard/wine mixture, then dip into the pistachios to coat.
- 6. Place the chicken in a shallow baking pan with a rack - this will allow the chicken to get crispy on all sides.

DH won't cook, so I'm always looking for 30 minute meals (and not of the Rachel Ray type - most of hers are too much work!). <br /> <br /><img src=http://i250.photobucket.com/albums/gg271/MrsTeny/Permanent%20Collection/PACSpring09Participation.jpg alt= /><img src=http://i250.photobucket.com/albums/gg271/MrsTeny/Permanent%20Collection/PACSpring09Iwasadopted.jpg alt= /></p>
