Ingredients
- 1/2 cup ketchup
- 1 tablespoon cider vinegar
- 2 teaspoons sriracha
- 2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon light brown sugar
- Nonstick cooking spray, for the baking pan
- 1 cup pecans
- 2 cups panko breadcrumbs
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 3 large eggs
- 2 small boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 1 pound), halved lengthwise
- 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken thighs (about 6 thighs), halved
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
Instructions
- For the ketchup: Stir together the ketchup, vinegar, sriracha, Worcestershire and brown sugar in a small bowl.
- For the chicken: Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Line a rimmed baking pan with parchment paper and spray it generously with cooking spray.
- Pulse the pecans in a food processor until finely ground. Add the panko and pulse until just combined. Pour into a wide, shallow bowl.
- Put the flour in a wide, shallow bowl and whisk in the garlic powder, paprika, cayenne, 1 tablespoon salt and a pinch of pepper.
- Whisk the eggs in another shallow bowl.
- Working with one piece of chicken at a time, dredge in the seasoned flour, then shake off the excess. Dip in the egg to coat and let the excess drip off. Add to the pecan panko mixture and turn to coat, lightly pressing so that the crumbs adhere. Transfer to the prepared baking pan.
- Spray the chicken generously with cooking spray and bake until golden brown all over and just cooked through, 15 to 20 minutes. Transfer to a platter and sprinkle with the parsley. Serve with the spicy, tangy ketchup on the side.

Reviews
My husband and I both enjoyed the chicken AND the dipping sauce (usually I don’t go for catsup but this was tasty).
Trisha…Excellent recipe! Easy and full of flavor! Loved it!!
I do not like sriracha so I did not make the dipping sauce. That being said, the seasonings were bland to my taste so next time I will kick it up with more cayenne. My husband said it screamed for more salt.
Great!!!
