Wanna Try Something New Today?

Got Bland Chicken?

Try coating it with crushed pecans, garlic powder and a pinch of pepper!
The pecans are nuts, so they have a naturally well, nutty, flavour and the garlic powder and pepper will add the little bit of "something extra" every flavour combination needs!

My easy- to - make chicken recipe?
(Making for 5 chicken breasts)
- crushed pecans
-garlic powder
-crushed black pepper

The amount of pecans, powder and pepper you put into the coating is really up to you - if you love the taste of garlic, feel free to pile it on, just "season" to your preferred taste.

-2 eggs, beaten

Place eggs in a bowl and beat them, you will use them to coat the chicken breasts before you "bread" them
"Bread" chicken - be sure to cover to entire breast

Heat oven to 450F, place breasts on a well-oiled or "Pam-ed" cookie sheet and bake for 20 mins.
When timer rings, flip chicken and cook for 5 minutes or until cooked through.

And, for added flavour, a lemon dipping sauce! The chicken will be delicious even without the sauce, but the sauce really adds a kick! My hubby sometimes pours the sauce over the chicken, whereas I prefer to dip!

Sauce:
1 Tbsp all purpose gluten free flour
1/4 cup white, granulated sugar
1/4 lemon juice
1/2 cup chicken broth

Place all ingredients in a small saucepan and heat on medium and stir constantly for about 5-10 minutes or until slightly translucent. Remove from heat and let stand about 3 minutes and stir. Continue to stir every so often until chicken is done.

Serve and enjoy!

Namaste.
