Ingredients:

Serving

3 medium leeks (white and light green portions only), cleaned and chopped
1 tbsp olive oil
1/2 tsp dried rosemary, crushed
1/2 tsp dried thyme
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp pepper
4 boneless skinless chicken breast halves (6 oz each)
pecan crust:
1/4 cup finely chopped pecans
1/4 cup dry bread crumbs
1/4 tsp dried rosemary, crushed
1/4 tsp dried thyme
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp pepper
1/4 cup dijon mustard
1 tbsp olive oil

Directions:

In a small skillet, saute leeks in oil until almost tender. Add the rosemary, thyme, salt and pepper; saute 1 minute longer. Remove from the heat; cool.
Flatten each chicken breast half to 1/4-in. thickness; top with leek mixture. Roll up and secure with toothpicks.
In a small shallow bowl, combine the pecans, bread crumbs, rosemary, thyme, salt and pepper. Brush mustard over chicken, then coat with pecan mixture. Place seam side down in a greased 11-in. x 7-in. baking dish. Drizzle with oil.
Bake, uncovered, at 375° for 35-40 minutes or until the chicken is no longer pink. Discard toothpicks. Yield: 4 servings.
