Honey-Mustard Pecan-Crusted Chicken

I love chicken and I am always trying new ways to serve it. The ingredients for this chicken are things you probably already have in your pantry. 

As many of you know, I always have pecans, since my brother-in-law runs a pecan farm, so this recipe was a perfect fit for me. 

You can choose any mustard you like, I just like the tang of Dijon. If you don't have Lawry's Salt, add a little salt and some Italian seasoning. Enjoy!
