Maple Mustard Sauce Over Pecan Crusted Chicken Breast Recipe
I have become a lover of “pecan crusted anything” lately. But I have noticed eating it plain is good but just not good enough. Adding a sauce definitely gives the chicken an added dimension of flavor. The maple and mustard is not only great on the chicken but an amazing flavor combo in general. It has become a family favorite, especially with the kiddos. This recipe has actually been requested for the chicken nugget lunch meal a few days ago.
