Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Bourbon Pecan Chicken Dish.
Step 1
To start, grab a mixing bowl and combine finely chopped pecans, dry bread crumbs, and 2 tablespoons of melted clarified butter.
Step 2
Give it a good mix until everything is well blended, then spread this delightful mixture onto a plate.

Now, take each chicken breast and gently press it into the pecan mixture, making sure to coat both sides thoroughly for that extra crunch and flavor.

Next, heat the remaining 2 tablespoons of clarified butter in a large skillet over medium heat.

In a small saucepan, whisk together Dijon mustard, dark brown sugar, bourbon, soy sauce, and Worcestershire sauce until the mixture is smooth and inviting.

Bring this sauce to a gentle simmer over medium-low heat, then take it off the heat.

Gradually whisk in chilled unsalted butter, one cube at a time, until the sauce transforms into a creamy, luscious blend.
