Method

Between plastic wrap, pound chicken with flat side of meat pounder or rolling pin to 1/2-inch (1 cm) thickness. Cut each lengthwise on diagonal into 4 strips.

In shallow dish, whisk together flour, 1 tsp (5 mL) of the chili powder, salt and pepper. In bowl, beat eggs. Place pecans, panko and remaining chili powder in another shallow dish.

One at a time, dip chicken strips into flour, shaking off excess; dip into eggs.Dredge in pecan mixture to lightly coat, pressing to adhere.

Bake on parchment paper–lined baking sheet in 425°F (220°C) oven until golden and no longer pink inside, about 25 minutes.
