Nutritional values

The chicken in this recipe provides you with lean protein, while the bread crumbs add some energizing carbohydrates to the meal. Nectarines are also a good, low calorie source of vitamin A, vitamin C, and potassium. These nutrients can help improve metabolism, digestion, and heart health. 

You can use other bread crumbs like panko or gluten free bread crumbs. For an even healthier version, you could crust the chicken with crushed almonds.
