Honey - Pecan Chicken

Honey - Pecan Chicken

My apologies for not posting I was having an issue with uploading pictures, a call to Apple and we are all set... Since I am back on Weight Watchers I am trying to cook healthier and watch my points. I saw this recipe from Dotty's Weight Loss Zone, great Website to get recipes and see point values for things. 

While cooking this dish Anthony said what is all this what are you making, I said, "Honey - Pecan Chicken". He said that sounds good, well we sat down to eat and I was digging in right away, it was really moist and the Honey with the Pecans tasted so good!! Anthony also approved!! He liked it a lot and we will keep it in the recipe book!! Enjoy!
