Pecan-Crusted Chicken

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!

Directions

Prepare the Chicken

1. Place beaten egg white into a shallow bowl. Combine coating ingredients in a second shallow bowl.

2. Dip cutlets into beaten egg white, then into pecan mixture to coat.

3. Heat oil in a skillet over medium flame. Fry about six minutes on each side.

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?
