Pistachio crusted chicken with avocado lime sauce/salsa? Anyone have recipe?
I had made from recipe in a book – I cannot locate recipe and wondered if anyone has made something similar – it was delicious.
I do not have the recipe extracted from the book, but I do have my own recipe for this that I make. It may not be exactly like the one you made, but it is a versatile recipe (I will show how else you can use it as other chicken recipes), and it’s delicious!
PISTACHIO CRUSTED CHICKEN W/AVOCADO SALSA
FOR THE CHICKEN
1 lb. of boneless skinless chicken breasts
4 large egg whites (beaten)
flour for dredging
kosher/sea salt
fresh ground black pepper
1 Tablespoon chopped fresh sage leaves
2 Tablespoons chopped fresh thyme leaves
The zest of one lemon
1 c.pistachios (chopped finely, or put in a food processor)
Get three pie plates:
In the first one put flour.
In the second one: Put the beaten egg whites.
In the third one: Put the pistachios, lemon zest, thyme and sage.
Salt and pepper both sides of the chicken breast, dredge in flour, dip in egg white and coat in the pistachio mixture.
Drop in a skillet that is heated with a few drizzles of olive oil and brown on both sides. Put the chicken breasts in a baking dish and bake at 350 degrees for 20 minutes.
(HERE IS THE VARIATION)…. in that third pie plate, on a night when you are not in the mood to cook pistachio crusted chicken, you can put flaked coconut. On another night, you can put Italian bread crumbs and bake in the oven with some mozarella cheese on top and serve with marinara. This is a good staple recipe to have to do lots of different things.
AVOCADO SALSA
3 large, ripe avocados
1/2 cup of finely chopped fresh cilantro
the juice and zest of 1 small lime
kosher/sea salt and fresh ground pepper to taste
1 splash of jalapeno sauce (if you like it spicy, this is optional)
Mash together to desired consistency and serve on pistachio chicken.
ENJOY
