I didn't have to marinate, but since the recipe didn't say you needed to (even though reviewers did) I thought I'd be okay. It did not turn out well. You couldn't taste much of the honey so the light pecan flavor was out of place. Won't make it again.

The flavor was delicious. However, the coating came out a little soggy. I think next time I will fry the chicken just long enough to get a crispy coat and then finish it off in the oven. This chicken was also very moist.

This was sooooo good! The only changes that I made were to add onion powder & garlic powder to both the egg/honey mixture & the pecan/breadcrumb mixture. Oh, and I used boneless chicken thighs, because it was what I had on hand. Hubby says nothing needs to be changed...it was perfect as is. It's a definite do-over in our house. I can't wait for our daughters to come home from college so I can make it for them too! Thanks, Laura, for a delicious recipe!

This was good but not outstanding. It wasn't overly sweet. I marinated the chicken breasts in honey for a couple hours. This made the honey get runny from the chicken juices. My husband was reminded of peanut brittle. It was something different but I probably won't make again.

This was really good. Nice sweet flavor, but not overbearing. I used walnuts, but want to try with pecans next time. A nice change to regular chicken breasts.

Fantastic recipe! I used 3 large boneless chicken breasts and it fed my family of 5. Even ate cold leftovers the next day.

We used crushed walnuts for this recipe and they turned out well. Good, solid family dinner.

This is a great crusted chicken recipe! I used boneless skinless breasts, pounded them out, and baked them for 20 minutes. I also used less bread crumbs and more pecans.

I didn't like this, but I can't penalize the recipe for it. I don't like honey or walnuts...that would be like going to a store and buying a red dress, then wanting to return it because it's red. I mostly made this for my boyfriend, as I'm trying new recipes. I used 2 thick boneless chicken breasts and marinated them in the honey/egg mixture for a few hours while I ran errands. I cooked them in the oven for 50 minutes at 350. I forgot to add salt and pepper to the walnut/Italian breadcrumb mixture so I did so before serving. They were really juicy and my boyfriend said they were 'amazing' and that I had some 'serious culinary skills'. A great change from the usual chicken for about the same effort. :)

This was delicious and so easy to make. Since we are not big into walnuts or pecans, I just omitted the nuts altogether and otherwise followed the recipe exactly. Came out delicous. I think I will try marinating it like others suggested next time. Delicious. Thank you for the recipe.

My hubby and I really enjoyed this! I added panko crumbs. Also, next time I think we'll drizzle a bit of honey on top after cooking. Thank you!

Great & easy and we loved it! I didn't use as much butter, & probably should have sprayed the bake dish first. A keeper.

Me and my husband just finished eating it and we LOVED IT!!! Something about the honey and peacan mixture was just great! I'm sure it would be good with walnuts also but peacans are my favorite. Hubby said to make again so I will! Thank you!! Thank you!! ps- I think this would be company worthy!

This deserves at least 12 stars! 6 for taste, 6 for easy prep work. I'm not a big fan of sweet meat dishes but this is one I love, and is now a favorite go-to recipe. I've made this on chicken and pork, and we prefer it on chicken (only tried pecans--don't like walnuts). The key to this is to MARINATE THE MEAT IN THE EGG/HONEY MIXTURE. The longer it marinates the better. I also very finely chop the pecans in my processor, and do so in large batches so I have the nuts ready to go for quick-fix meals. Panko crumbs help with crispiness, and I don't think this needs any salt. I spray a foil lined pan with olive oil, and each side of meat before baking. Comes out crispy every time. The only downside to this dish is that leftovers lose their crispiness (still taste great though!).

My husband said, "I'd pay to eat this in a restaurant, you have to make this again!" I used boneless chicken breasts and followed the recipe exactly. I drizzled some honey over the top before serving. Gave the coating a little extra sweetness and moisture. YUMMY!

Wow!! Everyone at dinner tonight thought I was a fancy-dancy cook!! This looks so pretty and is really easy to make. I used Panko bread crumbs for a little extra crispiness. The taste is much milder as one would think.--which is good because I'm not a big fan of honey. Everyone really raved on and on about this. It is sure to impress!! ( I served with steamed green beans and roasted potatoes with tomatoes basil and garlic from this site)
