Did you know that walnut shells were once used to clean aviation equipment, and walnut husks were once used as hair dye? Well, you do now! This meal doesn't involve planes or pigments, but the rich walnut flavor combined with butter and sweet honey does this tender chicken breast right and your dinner even more so. Walnuts: versatile, useful, and oh so tasty.
