Pecan crusting might be one of my favorite tricks to jazz up a sandwich. I’ve pecan crusted duck breasts, pork loin, chicken, and even Spam. Add a little jam to the sandwich and it’s instantly something special, something fancier, something amazing.
Pecan Crusted Chicken Sliders with Brown Sugar Bourbon Berry Jam & Tequila-Lime Gose Slaw
Ingredients
- Chicken:
- 3 c. finely chopped pecans
- 1 egg-beaten

- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tsp pepper
- 2-3 dashes tabasco

Instructions
- Chicken:

- Jam:
- In a saucepan, combine all jam ingredients. Cook over medium high heat until mixture becomes thick and bubbly. Use a potato masher to crush berries, especially strawberries.

- In small bowl, whisk together all ingredients except slaw. In a larger bowl, combine slaw and dressing. Toss to combine. Refrigerate until ready to use.
- Assembly:
- To each slider bun, layer 1 TBSP jam, a chicken thigh, and a 1/8-1/4 c. slaw.
