Bourbon Pecan Chicken is covered in a lick your plate clean sauce. The flavor of bourbon and pecans plus dijon mustard and honey combine to make a fantastically delicious meal. Great served with mashed potatoes and green beans!

 
Bourbon and pecans are two ingredients I love to use for fall cooking and they compliment each other so well.
Boneless chicken breasts are coated in a mixture of honey and Dijon mustard and then coated in a mixture of finely chopped pecans and bread crumbs. They are pan-fried until golden brown and then they finish cooking in the oven so they stay moist and juicy.

 
An easy and quick sauce is made from honey, bourbon, Dijon mustard, cayenne pepper, bourbon, heavy cream, plus pecans.
This is a meal that’s fancy enough for company, but also tastes like down-home comfort food. The sauce is just a little sweet and a little spicy with lots of buttery, crunchy pecans.
