Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken

    Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper on both sides.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Breading

    In a shallow bowl, beat the eggs. In another bowl, mix the chopped walnuts and bread crumbs.

  3. 3

    Coat the Chicken

    Dip each chicken breast into the beaten eggs, allowing excess to drip off. Then coat in the walnut and breadcrumb mixture, pressing to adhere.

  4. 4

    Fry the Chicken

    In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Fry the chicken breasts for about 4-5 minutes on each side or until golden brown and fully cooked.

  5. 5

    Make the Honey Dijon Sauce

    In a small bowl, whisk together honey, Dijon mustard, apple cider vinegar, and olive oil until smooth.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Remove the chicken from the skillet and place on a serving platter. Drizzle with the honey Dijon sauce and serve immediately.
