Pistachio Herb Crusty Chicken: Main Dish

Servings: 4

Prep time:15-20 mins

Ingredients:

• 

  1/4 cup Breadcrumbs (plain)

  1 1/2 teaspoons Dried Tarragon Leaves

  1/2 teaspoon Dried Rosemary Leaves, crushed

• 

  2 tablespoons All-purpose Flour

• 

  1/2 teaspoon Sea Salt

• 

  1 Egg (large)

Step 1:

Combine pistachios, breadcrumbs, tarragon, rosemary, flour and salt in shallow dish. In second shallow dish, lightly beat egg.

Step 2:

Roll chicken breast in egg, then in nut-spice mixture. Place in lightly buttered baking dish - a glass one would be ideal.

Step 3:

Bake 40 to 45 mins. at 350 degrees until crust is nice and brown.
