0:03
with one of my favorite autumn dishes
0:06
and that's pecan chicken I've got my
0:09
chickens that I've quartered and to give
0:12
us a sticky base we're gonna add a cup
0:16
of buttermilk and one egg now you'll
0:21
want to make sure that you've washed
0:23
your chicken very good I never cook a
0:26
chicken that I don't wash you want to
0:29
make sure your chicken is real clean all
0:32
right so we've mixed together our egg
0:35
and our buttermilk because the chickens
0:38
are going swimming before I put them in
0:41
their coats now let me show you what I'm
0:44
gonna coat them with I'm gonna eyeball
0:46
about a cup and a cup of flour and I've
0:53
got a cup of pecans that I have just
0:56
almost pulverized and I just did those
0:59
in a food processor it would take a long
1:02
time to take a knife and mince some that
1:05
fine so pull out your blender or your
1:07
food processor for that now I'm gonna
1:11
add 1/4 of a cup of sesame seeds into
1:17
that I'm gonna add a tablespoon of
1:27
that's gonna help our chicken get nice
1:30
and browned all right now I'm gonna add
1:33
about of teaspoon of salt and we're just
1:36
gonna mix this all together
1:38
and now I'm just gonna grind up some
1:44
fresh black pepper in there I was born
1:48
and raised in Albany Georgia which we
1:50
consider it to be the kickin capital of
1:53
the world and they were pecan trees
1:55
everywhere and the first house that my
2:00
husband and I bought had pecan trees in
2:03
the yard so I'd get out there and I'd
2:06
pick up those pecans and I'd take them
2:08
to the pecan company and sell those
2:11
pecans and that's what we would use to
2:15
go to the fair because I felt like
2:16
otherwise you know I I just didn't have
2:20
the money for something so frivolous
2:22
it's a fair but it was something that I
2:25
looked so forward to all right so I've
2:31
got a dish over here and I've gotten
2:33
some chicken already started and I put a
2:36
stick of melted butter
2:38
in the bottom of that pan so let's get
2:42
the rest of our chicken going and you
2:46
can see how I just quartered the chicken
2:49
okay so in our buttermilk and egg
2:52
mixture and like I said this is gonna
2:54
act like a glue for our nice coating
2:57
that we're gonna put on it and you know
3:00
y'all I would sell every one of those
3:02
stinking nuts but I'd save out enough to
3:05
make this dish or make a pecan pie so
3:12
there we go just gonna run it through so
3:15
we got our chicken nice and coated and
3:17
remember I told you that I had melted a
3:22
so I'm just gonna run that piece of
3:24
chicken around in that butter all right
3:30
here we go with the next piece
3:40
now I'm gonna take just to let everybody
3:43
know what this chicken is I'm just gonna
3:46
toss in about a quarter of a cup of
3:49
whole pecan halves there is nothing like
3:54
that nut love it hmm all right so in the
3:59
oven our chickens gotta go and remember
4:05
this 350 for an hour and 15 why don't we
4:10
pull that out and just see what our
4:13
finished dishes look like you know we've
4:15
got our pecan chicken in one oven Oh so
4:21
heavy look at that do you like white
4:26

4:34
