PECAN-CRUSTED CHICKEN BREASTS WITH MAPLE-DIJON SAUCE



Pecan-Crusted Chicken Breasts With Maple-Dijon Sauce image

From San Francisco Chronicle (2/7/07).. The author writes "This is an ideal entree for entertaining. The chicken can be sauteed several hours ahead, leaving only the baking for last minute. The recipe can easily be doubled or tripled; simply saute the chicken in batches." Note that the nutritional info takes into account the marinade, which you are not actually consuming.

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

1/2 cup olive oil, plus
3 tablespoons olive oil, divided
1/4 cup Dijon mustard, plus
4 tablespoons Dijon mustard (and more to taste)
1/4 cup dry white wine or 1/4 cup dry vermouth
1 tablespoon minced garlic

4 boneless skinless chicken breasts (without the tenderloin attached)
7 tablespoons pure maple syrup
1 1/2 cups finely chopped pecans
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon sea salt
1/2 teaspoon fresh ground pepper

  • To make sauce: Whisk maple syrup with 4 tablespoons Dijon. Taste and add 1 or 2 more teaspoons Dijon to taste. (Sauce may be refrigerated overnight. Bring to room temperature before serving.) Mix pecans, flour, salt and pepper on a plate. Remove chicken from marinade. Coat chicken on both sides with pecan mixture. If time permits, refrigerate at least 1 hour to help crumbs adhere.
