Walnut-Crusted Chicken

Found a yummy and healthy recipe in the magazine Body & Soul. It was a big hit in our home! Then again, maybe my family was just pleased that I actually cooked a real meal.

2 slices dried whole wheat bread
1/3 cup walnuts
2 Tb freshly grated Parmesan cheese
Coarse salt and ground pepper
1 large egg white
4 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves
1 Tb grapeseed oil

1. Preheat oven to 425*. In a food processor combine bread, walnuts, and Parmesan; season with salt and pepper.Process until fine crumbs form. Transfer to a shallow bowl. In another shallow bowl, beat egg white until frothy.
2. Season chicken with salt and pepper. Dip each breast into egg white, letting excess drip off, and then into crumb mixture, pressing to adhere.
3. In a large nonstick ovenproof skillet heat oil over medium heat. Add chicken and cook until lightly browned, 1 to 3 minutes. Carefully turn chicken over and put skillet in oven. Bake until chicken is golden brown and cooked through, 8 to 12 minutes.
