Walnut Crusted Chicken with Jalapeno Gouda Sauce Recipe
Ingredients
- 1 pound thin sliced boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 2 tbsp flour
- 1 tbsp seasoned salt
- 2 eggs, whisked with 1 tbsp milk
- 2 cups walnuts, put through food processor or smashed in a large zip lock bag with a mallet
- Sauce:
- 2 fresh jalapenos, washed, deseeded and diced
- 4 oz Gouda cheese, diced
- 1 garlic clove, minced
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 3 tbsp whole cream
- 3 tbsp salted butter
- 1 tbsp flour
Directions
- Preheat oven to 350. Dredge chicken cutlets in flour, egg mixture, then in walnuts.
- Place on baking spray-prepared baking sheet and bake for 30 minutes; or until chicken is cooked all the way through.
- Meanwhile; make cheese sauce. In a small sauce pan combine all cheese sauce ingredients over medium-low.
- Bring to a slow boil; stirring continuously until thickened. If it doesn't get thick after several minutes increase heat a little, but continue to stir. It should be pretty thick - maybe not as thick as Mexican cheese dip but close.
- Drizzle cheese sauce over chicken.
