Preparation

Combine nuts, Canadian Parmesan and paprika in shallow dish. Dip chicken in egg then coat with nut mixture.

Melt 2 tbsp (30 mL) of the butter in large frypan over medium-high heat. Cook half the chicken 2 minutes per side or until no longer pink in centre; remove from pan. Repeat using 2 tbsp (30 mL) more butter and remaining chicken. Place chicken on serving platter; top with slices of Canadian Havarti and place in 250 °F (120 °C) oven to keep warm.

Add remaining 1 tbsp (15 mL) butter to pan and sauté onions until tender. Combine orange juice, Grand Marnier or other orange liqueur and cornstarch; add to pan. Cook and stir, scraping up brown bits in the pan, until mixture boils and thickens. Salt and pepper to taste. To serve, pour sauce over chicken.
