A nice crunchy baked chicken that's good if you are craving fried chicken. You can substitute almonds for pecans if you prefer.
Ingredients
Directions
- Grind up pecans (or almonds) in a coffee grinder or blender. Grind enough to have 2/3 cup for coating the chicken.
- In a shallow bowl combine the ground pecans, paprika, salt and pepper.
- Place flour and buttermilk in separate bowls.
- Coat chicken with flour then dip in buttermilk and last coat with the pecan mixture.
- Spray a 13" x 9" x 2" baking dish with cooking spray like Pam. Place the chicken once it's been coated in the prepared baking dish.
- Bake uncovered at 375 °F (190 °C) for 35 to 40 minutes or until juices run clear and chicken is browned and crispy.

this looks good, but I think the Nutrition facts are for if you eat the entire recipe, not for a single serving

Does anyone else think the nutrition facts might be wrong on this recipe? Where are all the fat and calories coming from?

I think this recipe is pretty good for the Abs Diet. It has nuts and dairy, two power foods, and it tastes great!

There is only a touch of whole wheat flour on these so you could possibly eat them on Phase 1 too. I also eat 1/2 a portion & cut it up into a salad since this recipe is kind of high in calories.
