Southern Pecan Chicken

"A tasty way to bake chicken. The pecans make a wonderful crust. For a variation, try with a teaspoon of Blackend Chicken seasoning instead of the black pepper and salt. Prep time includes soaking time."

  1. I knew that it was going to have a subtle taste, but I think it was a bit too subtle. A bit on the bland side. It was relatively easy to make, and I served it over rice pilaf. I might try a different honey next time.....there are so many varieties, and after trying a few you begin to really tell the difference.
     
  2. Enjoyed this very much. Used more ground pecans, and baked a little less than the time stated. Like Miss Annie says, this can be spiced up if desired. As is, my kids loved it. Thanks for sharing the recipe!
