Crack eggs in small bowl and mix well. Place bread and
pistachio nuts in food processor and grind until slightly
course and place on another plate. Dredge each chicken
breast in flour and dip in egg wash. Next, dredge each in
nut mixture, set aside. Heat olive oil in heavy-bottomed
skillet, add chicken breasts and cook until golden
brown-flip and cook until golden. Place chicken breasts on
sheet pan or in ovenproof dish; place in pre-heated oven.
Bake 10-15 minutes or until cooked through. Place chicken
breasts on 4 plates and top with Cream Sauce.
