Pecan Crusted Chicken Salad
LIANAD
"Juicy, warm chicken breasts baked in a crunchy pecan and garlic flavored coating sit on a bed of crisp romaine lettuce. Dried cranberries and mandarin oranges add a sweetness that is balanced by the tanginess of crumbled blue cheese. Ranch dressing ties the dish together to make a wonderfully light, filling salad."

This salad is delicious! I found a way to keep your pecans on the chicken. I pounded the pecans so that they crumbled more. This helped them adhere much better. Only a few fell off from the bott...

Great as a main dish on a hot summer day! I did not have creamy garlic dressing, so I used Ranch dressing to dip the chicken in before coating with the pecans, and that worked just fine.
