Recipe Introduction


Posted by: dutchmom4 / Pecans coat this oven-fried chicken that’s a signature dish at The Patchwork Quilt Country Inn near Middlebury, Indiana. Owners Maxine Zook and Sue Thomas also offer 4-hour backroads tours of the Amish countryside.


List of Ingredients




1 slightly beaten egg
1/2 cup buttermilk
2/3 cup all-purpose flour
2/3 cup pecans, ground
2 Tablespoons sesame seed
1 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1/3 cup butter OR margarine, melted
2-1/2 to 3 pounds cut up broiler-fryer chicken
1/2 cup broken pecans
Salad greens, optional
Orange wedges, optional

Recipe



In a shallow dish, combine egg and buttermilk. In another shallow dish, stir together flour, ground pecans, sesame seed, paprika, salt and pepper. Pour butter into another shallow dish.

Rinse chicken; pat dry with paper towels. Skin chicken if you like. Dip chicken pieces into buttermilk mixture, then into flour-pecan mixture, then into butter. Place pieces, meaty side up on a rack in a shallow roasting dish. Sprinkle broken pecan pieces over chicken.

Bake in a 375-degree oven for 45 to 55 minutes or till chicken is tender and no longer pink, and coating is golden brown. If desired, spoon pecans on bottom of roasting pan onto chicken. If you like, garnish with greens and orange wedges. Makes 4 to 6 servings.
