WONDERFUL PISTACHIO CHICKEN
Written by Rocky Mountain Woman on April 29, 2011 – 12:19 pm -
If you like pistachios, have I got a deal for you!
Ingredient list:
1/2 cup shelled pistachios
2 T black sesame seeds
2 T ground coriander
1 1/2 t ground cumin
1 egg
1 T water
1/4 cup flour
1 T paprika
Salt and pepper
4 chicken pieces, your choice
cooking spray
Chop pistachios in a food processor and place in a bowl
add sesame seeds
coriander and cumin
Beat egg and water together
and, in another bowl, mix flour and paprika
rinse chicken
dip in flour mixture, then in egg mixture and then in pistachio mixture (roll it around good to get the chicken thoroughly coated)
Place on a baking sheet that has been coated with cooking spray
Bake at 400 degrees for 25 to 30 minutes, or until juices run clear when pierced in the thickest spot.
YUM!
Add a green salad and a glass of Sauvignon Blanc, and you are in pistachio heaven…sigh..

Now that looks good and healthy. Dr. Oz loves pistachios as a health food. I really abused my health when the power was out. Can’t cook, then why not eat candy and potato chips? Thanks for the incentive to get back on the wagon.

I’m a huge pistachio fan RMW!
And putting a crust on meat is such a great way to add that flavour without having to make a sauce
