Pecan Rolled Chicken Breasts

What You Need:

1 egg white, slightly beaten

2 tbsp pecans, chopped and toasted

1 tsp parsley flakes

1/4 tsp salt

1/2 lb chicken breasts, skinless and boneless

How to Make It:

Beat the egg white slightly in a shallow bowl.

Toss together the pecans, parsley flakes and salt in a separate bowl.

Dip each chicken breast in the egg white.

Roll in the pecan mixture.

Place the coated chicken breast on a cookie sheet that has been sprayed with a non stick cooking spray.

Be sure that the chicken breasts do not touch either on the sheet.

Set the oven to 350 degrees and allow it to preheat.

Bake 25 minutes or until the juice runs clear when pricked with a fork.

Many like the idea of having chicken at a picnic. Fried chicken is a thing of the past when eating healthy. Try this chicken in its place.

To toast the pecans lay them in a single layer on a baking sheet. Bake in a 350 degree oven about 3 minutes or until light brown.
