Pecan Crusted Chicken With Banana Salsa
Don't turn your nose up at the banana salsa (we did at 1st) it is absolutly great with the pecan chicken, or by itself. We also put chunks of pineapple in the salsa to add a little different flair (bananas & pineapple do so well together) and its so yummie.
Steps
Salsa: combine the bananas , bell peppers , jalapeno chilies , cilantro , lime juice , brown sugar , salt and pepper in bowl and mix well.
Let stand 1 hour or longer.
Chicken: beat the egg with milk in a bowl.
Mix the bread crumbs and pecans in a bowl.
Season the chicken with salt and pepper.
Spread with dijon mustard and coat lightly with flour.
Dip into egg mixture and then into pecan mixture , pressing to coat well.
Heat the oil in a nonstick pan and add the chicken.
Saute until golden brown on both sides , turning once.
Remove to a baking dish.
Bake at 350 degrees for 15-20 minutes or until cooked through.
Serve with the salsa.
