another chicken recipe


This one is for Pecan Chicken

2 to 4 chicken breasts

1 cup buttermilk (I use regular milk and only about 1/2 cup)
1 egg

In another bowl:
1 cup flour (I use about 1/2 that much)
1 cup minced pecans (I use chopped up ones)
1 tbsp paprika
1/4 cup sesame seeds (I rarely bother with these)
1 tsp salt
black pepper to taste (I don't use either salt or pepper)

1 stick of melted butter in a pyrex pan (I use unsalted butter, and maybe only about 1/2 a stick)

Coat the chicken in the liquid and then flour/nut mixture

Press chicken into the dish and sprinkle with 1/4 cup of pecans over the top.

I also like to add about 1/2 cup French's French Fried Onion (either regular or cheddar) doesn't really matter.

Bake at 350 for 1 1/4 hours.

I also don't really use exact measurements of any of this because I most often only do 2 chicken breasts and have discovered it is not necessary to waste so much flour, etc. Just need enough to cover or coat the chicken. I don't use the sesame seeds any more because I decided they didn't add much to the flavor...lol...Also, I don't bother putting the nuts into the flour mix but instead just put them all on the top of the chicken when it's in the pan, along with the onions...

Hope you all understand these directions, you can always ask me for clarification.

Sparkles,
I think it's about 1/2 cup but I use about 1/4 cup. Really only need enough to cover the bottom of the pan. It also keeps the chicken from drying out.

I try to cut down on use of flour but everyone can get the coating done whatever way works for them.
