Chicken Dijonnaise
Directions
- Place each chicken breast half between two pieces of plastic wrap. Using the flat side of a meat mallet, lightly pound chicken to 1/4- to 1/8-inch thickness. Discard plastic wrap. In a shallow dish combine flour and pepper. Coat chicken pieces with flour mixture.
- In a 12-inch skillet melt butter over medium heat. Add chicken to skillet. Cook about 6 minutes or until no pink remains in the chicken, turning once. Transfer chicken to a platter, reserving drippings in skillet. Cover to keep warm.
- For sauce, add green onion to the drippings in the skillet. Cook and stir over medium heat for 1 to 2 minutes or until tender. Stir in whipping cream, white wine, and mustard. Cook and stir for 1 to 2 minutes or until smooth and slightly thickened. Spoon sauce over chicken. If desired, snip fresh thyme to sprinkle over chicken and garnish with thyme sprigs.

Has anyone tried this with chicken thighs? Have 2 people that do not like the breast.

So easy and so good. Gave it to my six-year-old who does NOT like mustard, but this is so mellow and tasty, you don't know it's mustard. Just added it to my favorite recipes.

Made this tonight for dinner. I used a half a teaspoon of salt in the flour mixture. I also had to add two teaspoons of butter to the pan to make the sauce. I used milk instead of cream and the chicken broth for the Dijon sauce. My family liked it. I thought the chicken was very moist and flavorful. Will make this again.
