Pecan Crusted Chicken

WHAT YOU NEED

3 to 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts (about 1 lb)

3/4 cup panko  bread crumbs

1/2 cup chopped pecans

2 tablespoons chopped fresh Italian (flat-leaf) parsley

1 container (6 oz) Greek Fat Free plain yogurt

3 tablespoons olive oil or butter

WHAT TO DO

Between pieces of plastic wrap or waxed paper, place each chicken breast smooth side down;

gently pound with flat side of meat mallet or rolling pin until about 1/2 inch thick.

In shallow dish, mix bread crumbs, pecans and parsley. In another shallow dish, place yogurt.

Dip chicken into yogurt, then coat with crumb mixture.

In 10-inch skillet, heat oil over medium heat until hot.

Cook chicken in oil 8 to 10 minutes, turning once, until chicken is no longer pink in center and coating is golden brown.

***You can substitute chopped walnuts or almonds for the pecans.

That's it!

Doesnt that sound fantastic.
