Nut-Crusted Chicken Tenders

Chestnuts, pecans, or walnuts add a sweet taste to the chicken. The mesh basket crisps both sides of the chicken without flipping, and cooking takes less time.

Ingredients

• ½ cup finely chopped roasted chestnuts (fresh or canned)
• ¼ cup plain (standard or Panko) breadcrumbs
• ½ teaspoon dried rosemary
• Salt and pepper
• 2 tablespoons spicy brown mustard
• 1 pound chicken tenders

Directions

1. Preheat the oven to 375 °F (191 °C).
2. Combine the nuts with the breadcrumbs and rosemary in a shallow bowl. Add salt and pepper to taste.
3. Brush the tenders lightly with the mustard; roll in the nut mix.
4. Spray each chicken piece lightly with olive oil and place in Oven Crisper Basket with Teflon™ nonstick coating.
5. Bake 20 minutes until tenders are golden and crispy.
6. Transfer chicken to a serving plate.
