I received product from Millican Pecan to use in my recipes. I received no further compensation.
Pecan Moscato Chicken serves tender chicken, spinach, bacon and a combo of toasted pecans and ground pecans flavored with delicate wine.
Chicken and pecans combine to make a unique taste that I love.
Chicken salad with pecans is one of my favorites.
Pecan Chicken and Grapes Salad
For my Pecan Moscato Chicken, I seasoned chicken breast with salt, pepper and ground pecans. Fry the chicken in a hot fry pan coated with 1 tablespoon vegetable oil. I sautéed spinach and toasted the pecan halves in the same pan. Oven fried bacon add a salty umami taste.
Move chicken to a plate, top with spinach and pecans.
Deglaze the pan with some Moscato and pour over chicken. You can use any white wine as a substitute.
Easy, tasty dinner you’ll love!
