When I heard “Pecan Chicken,” I envisioned chicken quarters with whole pecans in a brown sugar sauce. So, when I opened the package labeled “Pecan Chicken” at the photo shoot, I was taken by surprise! One bite confirmed that this chicken was perfectly moist on the inside and crispy on the outside, with an all-around palate-pleasing taste. Different from what I expected, but oh, so much better!

Can this be baked? Can I substitute a different kind of chopped nuts?
If this can be baked, then for how long, at what temperature, and covered or uncovered? If I was just guessing I would do 350 degrees uncovered for 15-20 minutes- because I have other chicken cutlet recipes with those instructions. Also, can I substitute a different kind of chopped nuts?
