MACADAMIA NUT CRUSTED CHICKEN
I found this recipe on the Mauna Loa site about 8 years ago. The site has changed since that time. My family really enjoys this recipe. We all agree that the fresh lime juice in the sauce is key. So, for safekeeping and easy access to this recipe, here you have it! This recipe can be used as a main course or as an appetizer. If you can't find macadamia nut oil, as a substitute I would suggest using an extra light olive oil.
