Recipe Summary Walnut-Crusted Chicken Breast

I almost never order a nut-crusted entree in a restaurant, as they often feature a sugary glaze or a too-sweet nut, like pecan or macadamia. That's not an issue here since we're going with buttery, subtly bitter walnuts, held on with a very savory 'nut glue,' made with a garlic and mustard base. This protective layer of deliciousness makes boneless, skinless chicken breast taste like it was just carved off a freshly roasted carcass.

Ingredients | Garlic Chicken Chicken Breast Recipes For Dinner

  • 5 cloves garlic, crushed
  • 3 tablespoons Dijon mustard, divided
  • 2 teaspoons fresh thyme
  • 2 (8 ounce) skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
  • salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
  • cayenne pepper to taste
  • 1 ½ cups finely chopped walnuts
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil, or to taste
  • ½ cup chicken broth
  • 2 teaspoons honey
  • Directions

  • Mix garlic, 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard, and thyme together in a bowl to make the "nut glue."
  • Season chicken breasts generously with salt, pepper, and cayenne. Spread nut glue all over the chicken. Refrigerate until ready to use.
  • Toss walnuts over the chicken, press down firmly, and repeat on the other side to coat thoroughly. Refrigerate for 1 1/2 to 3 hours.
  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
  • Coat the bottom of an oven-proof skillet with some olive oil. Place chicken breasts on top, reserving excess nuts if desired. Season with a pinch of salt and drizzle more olive oil on top.
  • Bake in the center of the preheated oven until walnuts are lightly toasted and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of a breast reads 150 degrees F (66 degrees C), about 25 minutes.
  • Quickly remove chicken to a plate to rest. Transfer skillet to the stovetop; stir in broth, 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard, and honey and bring to a boil over high heat; cook until reduced by about half, 3 to 4 minutes. Spoon pan sauce over and around the chicken to serve.
  • You can prep the chicken hours ahead if you prefer.
  • Be careful taking the pan out of the oven and keep the handle covered with a towel or mitt at all times.
  • Nutrition data for this recipe includes the full amount of walnut coating. The actual amount of coating consumed will vary.
