"My family enjoys chicken and always asks me to bake it this way," explains Julie Jahn of Decatur, Indiana. "Sometimes I like to give this dish kid appeal by cutting the chicken into strips before coating with the nut mixture."

I'm not a huge fan of buttermilk, but I thought I'd give this recipe a try anyway. I'm glad I did! The buttermilk didn't overpower the chicken and the pecan crust was delicious.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover chicken. I made a big batch of chicken on the weekend and then used it to make this dish on Monday night.

I made this recipe in my air fryer and it turned out perfectly! The chicken was cooked through and the pecan crust was nice and crispy.

I'm allergic to pecans, so I had to substitute walnuts in this recipe. The chicken still turned out great!

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my chicken turned out dry and overcooked. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what happened.

This recipe was easy to follow and the chicken turned out great! I used boneless, skinless chicken thighs and they cooked perfectly in the time specified. The pecan crust was also very tasty.

I made this recipe for my husband and he loved it! He said it was the best chicken he's ever had.

This recipe was a little too sweet for my taste, but I think that's just because I used dark brown sugar instead of light brown sugar. Next time I'll try it with light brown sugar and see if that makes a difference.
