In a food processor, process nuts until coarsely chopped. Add seeds, coriander and a pinch of salt and process briefly until combined. Transfer to a large plate. Brush both sides of chicken with mustard. Press chicken into nut mixture to coat lightly.
Preheat oven to 350\u00b0F. Line a baking tray with parchment paper. Heat oil in a large frying pan over moderate heat. Cook chicken, in batches, for 1-2 mins each side or until golden. Transfer to prepared tray. Bake chicken for 10-12 mins or until cooked. Remove from oven. Stand for 5 mins. Slice thickly.
For the fava bean salad, cook beans in a medium saucepan of boiling water for 4 mins or until tender. Drain and refresh under cold water. Transfer to a large glass bowl. Add remaining ingredients. Season with salt and stir to combine. Serve with the chicken.
