Slow-Braised Pecan-Crusted Chicken with Honey Butter
Clean and simple, this Southern Comfort pecan-crusted chicken with honey butter delivers a bowl that hits every note at once.
Method
Pat the pecan-crusted chicken dry and season generously with salt and pepper.
Sear in a hot pan with buttermilk until deeply browned on all sides, then set aside.
Soften garlic powder and sharp cheddar in the same pot, scraping up the browned bits.
Return everything to the pot, add liquid to barely cover, and braise low and slow until fork-tender.
Reduce the sauce until glossy, adjust the seasoning, and finish with fresh herbs.
