Time 45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

1/2 cup ketchup
1 tablespoon cider vinegar
2 teaspoons sriracha
2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon light brown sugar
Nonstick cooking spray, for the baking pan
1 cup pecans
2 cups panko breadcrumbs
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
3 large eggs
2 small boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 1 pound), halved lengthwise
1 pound boneless, skinless chicken thighs (about 6 thighs), halved
2 tablespoons chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley

Steps:

  • For the ketchup: Stir together the ketchup, vinegar, sriracha, Worcestershire and brown sugar in a small bowl.
  • For the chicken: Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Line a rimmed baking pan with parchment paper and spray it generously with cooking spray.

Tips:

  • To ensure the chicken is cooked thoroughly, use a meat thermometer to check that the internal temperature has reached 165°F (74°C) before removing it from the oven.
  • If you don't have a meat thermometer, you can check if the chicken is done by cutting into the thickest part of the breast. The juices should run clear, not pink.
  • For a crispier chicken coating, press the pecans into the chicken before baking. This will help them adhere better and create a golden brown crust.
  • If you don't have chutney on hand, you can make a simple substitute by combining equal parts brown sugar, apple cider vinegar, and Dijon mustard.
  • Serve the chicken with a side of roasted vegetables or mashed potatoes for a complete meal.
