Ingredients
  • 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, pounded flat until +-1cm thick
  • 250ml honey mustard sauce (OR 125ml Dijon mustard & 125ml honey, combined) for marinade PLUS 50ml honey mustard sauce for serving
  • 2 fresh thyme sprigs OR 5ml dried thyme
  • salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • lemon pepper seasoning
  • 250ml Special K cereal flakes (or any other cereal flakes)
  • 50g pecan nuts

Directions
  1. PLEASE NOTE: I left out the 24-48 hours that the chicken should marinate in the Prep Time.
  2. Sprinkle chicken breasts with salt, pepper, lemon pepper (and dried thyme).
  3. Place the chicken in a shallow dish or container and pour the honey mustard sauce over the chicken. Make sure the chicken is completely covered.
  4. Place a sprig of thyme on each chicken breast.
  5. Marinate for 24 - 48 hours in the refrigerator.
  6. Preheat the oven at 190 degrees Celsius.
  7. Combine and finely crush/chop (or use a food processor) the Special K flakes and pecan nuts.
  8. Add 5 - 10ml freshly ground black pepper to the crumbs and mix.
  9. Remove the chicken breasts from the marinade and dip them into the crumbs mixture until completely covered.
  10. Place the chicken breasts on a greased oven plate or in a shallow oven dish and bake for 40 – 50 minutes until done, turning once halfway through.
  11. Note: If the crumbs on the bottom side of the chicken breasts get stuck on the oven plate or dish, lightly brush that side of the chicken breasts with a little honey mustard sauce and sprinkle with some more crumbs to cover the chicken.
  12. Heat the 50ml honey mustard sauce and pour over chicken breasts.
  13. Serve!
