Trying a less exotic dish

After cooking various seafood and Chinese food dishes over past few months I figured I would try something a bit less "exotic" and see if it would still be a rewarding (and yummy) experience. So this week's Saturday night meal was [Bourbon Pecan Chicken]. I'm not sure I cooked it 100% correctly (mainly because my breadcrumbs/pecans didn't stick very well to the chicken) - but I thought it went pretty well!

I was going to serve with two sides (mushrooms and green beans) but I got a bit overwhelmed (and short on time) so I just make a larger serving of green beans (and almonds/maple syrup). My favorite part of the meal was the fact that the green onions finally came out like I want - nice and green!

I'm sure Holly was annoyed with me but as we were eating I kept saying to myself "Wow... this is really tasty!" I was just surprised that a non-exotic dish could actually be tasty.
