Why I Love This Recipe

OMG! This is soooooo gooooooood!! Of course, if it's gonna make your cholesterol soar, it has to be good, right?

Finely ground pecans are used instead of flour to coat these savory chicken breasts. The resulting flavor & texture are irresistible.

1/2 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. freshly ground black pepper

Dip chicken first in butter mixture, ten dredge in pecans to coat. In large frying pan, heat remaining 2 Tb. butter in oil over med. heat. Add chicken & cook 3 min. on each side, 'til lightly browned & tender. Remove to serving platter & cover with foil to keep war,/
