WALNUT-CRUSTED CHICKEN BREAST
I almost never order a nut-crusted entree in a restaurant, as they often feature a sugary glaze or a too-sweet nut, like pecan or macadamia. That's not an issue here since we're going with buttery, subtly bitter walnuts, held on with a very savory 'nut glue,' made with a garlic and mustard base. This protective layer of deliciousness makes boneless, skinless chicken breast taste like it was just carved off a freshly roasted carcass.

Steps:
- Mix garlic, 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard, and thyme together in a bowl to make the "nut glue."
- Season chicken breasts generously with salt, pepper, and cayenne. Spread nut glue all over the chicken. Refrigerate until ready to use.
- Toss walnuts over the chicken, press down firmly, and repeat on the other side to coat thoroughly. Refrigerate for 1 1/2 to 3 hours.
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
- Coat the bottom of an oven-proof skillet with some olive oil. Place chicken breasts on top, reserving excess nuts if desired. Season with a pinch of salt and drizzle more olive oil on top.
- Bake in the center of the preheated oven until walnuts are lightly toasted and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of a breast reads 150 degrees F (66 degrees C), about 25 minutes.
- Quickly remove chicken to a plate to rest. Transfer skillet to the stovetop; stir in broth, 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard, and honey and bring to a boil over high heat; cook until reduced by about half, 3 to 4 minutes. Spoon pan sauce over and around the chicken to serve.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 425°F. In a food processor, combine bread, walnuts, parmesan, and 1/4 teaspoon salt; season with pepper. Process until fine crumbs form. Transfer to a shallow bowl. In another bowl, beat egg white until frothy.
- Pat dry chicken with paper towels. Season chicken on both sides with 1/2 teaspoon salt, dividing evenly, and pepper. Dip each chicken breast into egg white to coat completely, then let excess drip off before dredging in crumb mixture, pressing to adhere.
- Heat the oil in a large ovenproof skillet over medium until hot but not smoking. Cook chicken until lightly browned on one side, 1 to 3 minutes. Flip chicken and transfer skillet to oven. Bake until golden brown and cooked through, 8 to 12 minutes. Serve with lemon slices.

WALNUT-CRUSTED CHICKEN BREASTS
Packed with omega-3 fatty acids, walnuts add richness to this light breading. The coating keeps the chicken moist. A seasonal green salad goes well with this. Recipe is from Martha Stewart.
