A note about serious food allergies
“Pe-can, pe-can, pe-can pie,” Meg Ryan and Billy Crystal famously repeated in When Harry Met Sally, and while we don't have any pie to offer you (we wish!), we do have pecans. Specifically, we have a pecan-parsley-Dijon-crusted chicken breast that offers rich, vivid flavor in every bite. We also have carrots flavored with BBQ spice and butter, pairing perfectly with the chicken. This dish will have all your friends and neighbors telling you they'd be proud to partake of your pecan chicken. Tip: Want an easy way to mince parsley? Gather the stems in one hand, and lay the leaves on the cutting board. Cut leaves with your knife using a rocking motion, then turn 90 degrees and repeat until the parsley is minced.
