2 tbsp Pecan Halves, Ground
1 Egg White

1.  Slice chicken into 1/2 inch wide strips. Set aside. Beat the egg white lightly in a wide, shallow dish. In another dish, mix together the spices and the pecan meal. Dip each chicken strip in the egg white, then roll lightly in the pecan-spice mixture. Set on wax paper. If not cooking immediately, refrigerate, uncovered.

Pecan meal is also known as pecan flour and adds a rich buttery element to pie crust, bread and more. Substitute pecan meal for regular flour. It even makes a great coating for fish or poultry.
