PECAN CRUSTED CHICKEN



Pecan Crusted Chicken image

This chicken is nice and crunchy with just a tiny little bite from the cayenne. Enjoy it alone, topped with honey-mustard dressing or atop a salad (See Recipe #145067). Cooking time includes the 20-30 minutes chicken dries between breading and cooking. This recipe is from Cuisine at Home magazine.

Categories     Chicken Breast

Time 55m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 -3 boneless skinless chicken breast halves (6-8 ounce)
2 egg whites
2 teaspoons cornstarch
1/2 lemon, juice of
1 cup coarse dry breadcrumbs
1 tablespoon fresh parsley
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 lemon, zest of, minced
3/4 cup finely chopped pecans
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1/4 teaspoon cayenne
3 -4 tablespoons olive oil

Steps:

  • Prepare chicken breasts into cutlets, cutting into thirds and gently pounding to an even thickness of 1/2 inch (easier and cleaner if done between two layers of plastic wrap).
  • Blend egg whites, cornstarch, and lemon juice with a fork in a wide, shallow dish; set aside.
  • Combine bread crumbs, parsley, salt, pepper, zest, pecans, and seasonings in another wide shallow dish.
  • Crust chicken breasts by dipping both sides of prepared chicken into egg white mixture. Then applying crumbs to both sides, patting them on as much as possible. Transfer to a cookie rack to air-dry on both sides for 20-30 minutes. (This will set crust so it will stay on chicken and crisp up nicely).
  • Sauté chicken in oil in a large, nonstick, ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat for about 3 minutes, or until golden brown and crisp on bottom. Turn carefully with a spatula and transfer the skillet to the oven to finish cooking. This should take about 8 more minutes. Don't overcook, you don't want it to dry out.

PECAN CRUSTED CHICKEN WITH RASPBERRY DRIZZLE

Easy crispy chicken with a simple raspberry sauce. You could also do this with boneless breasts if you like, but thighs are so much more flavorful and give the dish that extra boost. Adjust the cook time to about 25 minutes if using boneless breasts. This recipe was a contest entry for RSC #11.

PECAN CRUSTED CHICKEN BREAST WITH CHILI CUMIN BUTTER



Pecan Crusted Chicken Breast with Chili Cumin Butter image

Provided by Food Network

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 19

2 cups all purpose flour
3 whole eggs
1/2 cup milk
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 cups bread crumbs
1 cup pecans, finely chopped
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 cup Parmesan cheese
1 1/2 pounds boneless, skinless, chicken breast
1/4 cup vegetable oil for frying (more if necessary)
4 ounces unsalted butter
2 tablespoons ancho chili paste
1 tablespoon toasted and ground cumin seed
Several parsley sprigs, leaves only
Several cilantro sprigs, leaves only
1 tablespoon lime juice
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
Serving suggestion: lemon-steamed asparagus and herb scented rice

Steps:

  • For the breading process: Three separate containers (preferably flat and wide baking dishes or gratin dishes) will be needed; one for the flour, one for wet ingredients and one for the breading ingredients.
  • Place the flour into its chosen dish. Whisk the eggs together with the milk and 2 tablespoons oil. Combine the bread crumbs, pecans, salt, pepper and Parmesan cheese until uniformly mixed.
  • Using a meat tenderizer or other flat object to pound the chicken breasts to a flat and uniformly 1/4-inch thick cutlet. Dip the cutlets, one at a time into the flour first, next the egg mixture and finally the dry breading mix. Try to keep one hand dry and work one hand wet or use tongs to transfer the chicken from one dish to another. When all of the chicken has been coated, place on a dish and refrigerate until ready to cook. This may be done in advance.
  • Make the flavored butter by placing the butter, chili paste, cumin seed, parsley, cilantro, lime juice and ground black pepper in the bowl of a food processor. Pulse to combine well and remove. Lay a piece of waxed paper 12 by 16 inches out flat and scrape the flavored butter onto the waxed paper, at about 1/3 the length up, into a sausage shape. Roll the edge of the paper over the butter and enclose the butter to form a tube-shape. Roll the remaining paper up as you would a cigar and place this log of butter into the freezer for at least 3 hours until it is brick hard. This butter may be made well in advance and keeps, frozen, for up to 1 month.
  • To cook the chicken, heat a large saute pan over medium heat, with the 1/4 cup of oil until hot. Add the chicken to the oil, cooking in batches to avoid over crowding the pan, and cook until golden brown about 6 minutes. Turn the chicken over and cook the second side for an additional 6 minutes until the center is cooked and the juices run clear. Transfer to a platter and keep warm.
  • Remove the butter from the freezer, unwrap, and cut into 1/4-inch thick round slices. After all the chicken has cooked, place 1 or 2 slices of butter on each piece of chicken, allowing the heat from the chicken to melt the butter into the chicken coating. Serve with lemon-steamed asparagus and herb scented rice.

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 12

6 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
1 pound Brie cheese
1 cup chopped green onion
2 cloves garlic, crushed
2 cups finely chopped toasted pecans
1 egg, beaten
¼ cup water
2 cups fresh raspberries
¼ cup white sugar
¼ cup water
salt and pepper to taste
½ cup olive oil

Steps:

  • Pound the chicken to flatten. Soften Brie in microwave; in a medium bowl combine the Brie, green onion and garlic and mix together. Spread about 1/4 cup of this mixture onto each chicken breast half. Roll up and secure with toothpicks.
  • Combine egg beat and water in a small bowl and whisk together to make egg wash. Place toasted pecans in a shallow dish or bowl. Dip each chicken roll in egg wash, then roll through the pecans, coating on all sides.
  • Heat oil in a large skillet over medium high heat and cook chicken rolls for 15 minutes, turning to brown on each side. When browned, cook for an additional 15 minutes, until cooked through and chicken juices run clear.
  • To Make Raspberry Sauce: Meanwhile, place raspberries, sugar and water in a blender. Blend for 3 to 4 minutes, then pour through a sieve to remove seeds.

Tips:

  • For a crispy crust, ensure the chicken is dry before coating it in the pecan mixture.
  • Use a food processor to finely chop the pecans for a more consistent coating.
  • If you don't have a food processor, you can finely chop the pecans by hand or use a rolling pin to crush them.
  • Make sure the butter is melted and cooled slightly before adding it to the pecan mixture, as this will help the mixture adhere to the chicken.
  • If you don't have raspberry preserves, you can use another type of fruit preserves, such as strawberry or apricot.
  • You can also make your own raspberry sauce by simmering fresh or frozen raspberries with sugar and water.
  • Serve the chicken with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a salad.

Conclusion:

Pecan crusted chicken with raspberry sauce is a delicious and elegant dish that is perfect for a special occasion. The crispy pecan crust adds a delightful crunch to the tender chicken, while the raspberry sauce provides a sweet and tangy flavor. This dish is sure to impress your guests and leave them wanting more.
