Menu Plan for December 15- 21

Dinner: Honey Pecan Chicken, brocolli

Honey Pecan Chicken

½ cup pecans

2 Tablespoons cornflake crumbs

2 Tablespoons honey

1 Tablespoon reduced sodium soy sauce

4 5-ounce chicken breasts

Non-stick spray

1 Preheat oven to 425. Line baking sheet with foil.

2. Finely chop pecans in food processor. Combine with cornflake crumbs and sprinkle onto waxed paper.

3. Combine honey and soy sauce in shallow bowl.

4. Dip each chicken breast into the honey-soy mixture then into the cornflake-pecan mixture to coat.

5. Arrange on baking pan and spray lightly with non-stick spray.

6. Bake until chicken is cooked through, about 5 minutes each side.

****oops!  I forgot to check my pantry well, so I’m using Wheaties instead of cornflakes and walnuts instead of pecans.
