It's quick and easy, yet tastes like it took a lot of time.
| Dash ds salt and pepper to taste | 8 frozen waffles | |
| 4 large skinless, boneless chicken breasts | 1/2 c honey | |
| 2 T unsalted butter | 1/2 c Dijon mustard | |
| 1 T olive oil | 1 c finely chopped pecans |
Trim chicken and flatten lightly. Pat dry with paper towels and season on both sides with salt and pepper and set aside.
Heat butter and olive oil in a large skillet or a two-burner griddle over medium-high heat, add chicken and cook 3 minutes on one side, turn and cook 3 to 4 minutes more or until just cooked through.
Meanwhile, stir together honey, mustard and garlic. With a small spatula or spreader, spread mixture on both sides of chicken and then dredge on both sides with chopped pecans. Cover and keep warm.
Toast waffles and cut 4 in half. On each dinner plate, place one whole waffle in center and a half waffle on each side. Place a honey pecan chicken breast on each and serve.
