Can someone give me the Pecan Crusted Chicken recipe. I bought the stuff to make it tonight for the family but then I gave my next host the cookbook to use to make recipes prior to her show and now I don't have it to make my recipe! Silly me! I don't want to call and bother her so I thought I could get it from one of you.

Thanks,
Donna
 
Does anyone have this typed up? I just noticed I left my cookbook at home and I'm going to the store right after work. Thanks
