HONEY PECAN CHICKEN STRIPS

Steps:

• In a separate bowl, combine the flour, pecans and seasoning salt. Mix well and set aside.
• Heat about 1 inch of vegetable oil in a large skillet over a medium heat until it reaches 375 degrees F.
• Place a small pan over a low heat and add the honey and butter. Allow the honey to warm and the butter to melt.
• Meanwhile, remove the chicken from the buttermilk a few pieces at a time, then add to the flour/pecan mixture, turning to coat thoroughly. Place on a plate. Continue with the remaining chicken until it is all coated.

PERFECT CHICKEN CUTLETS

Steps:

• Lightly beat eggs with water and place flour, egg and water mixture and bread crumbs in 3 separate bowls.
• Dredge chicken with flour and then put in egg mixture. Shake off excess egg.
• Cover chicken breasts in bread crumbs. Put chicken breasts in refrigerator for 15-30 minutes so crumbs will stick to chicken when frying.
• Preheat frying pan on medium heat for 1 minute. Add oil and heat for 1 minute. Add chicken breasts and cook for 2 to 3 minutes on each side or until no longer pink inside.
• Drain on paper towel and serve.

CHICKEN CUTLETS WITH PECANS

Steps:

• Coat chicken with flour, shaking off excess; set aside.
• Cook half of the chicken in half of the margarine in large skillet on medium-high heat until chicken is cooked through. Remove from skillet; cover to keep warm. Repeat with remaining chicken and margarine, reserving drippings in skillet.
• Add shallots and garlic to skillet; cook and stir just until tender. Add sherry; cook on high heat until pan is deglazed, stirring constantly. Stir in half-and-half, grapes and mustard; cook and stir until sauce is thickened. (Do not boil.) Serve each chicken breast topped with about 1/4 cup of the sauce. Sprinkle evenly with the pecans.

PECAN CRUSTED CHICKEN

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.
