Instructions

Maple Pecan Chicken

  • Sprinkle salt on chicken. Melt butter and oil in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add chicken and brown on each side. Add syrup, vinegar, and pecans. Cook about 7 minutes, stirring occasionally and flipping chicken at least once. Serve chicken with sauce and pecans on top.
