I ended up having to make a lot of substitutions but I think that the taste was still pretty close to what it would have been. I thought I had white wine, but turns out I was out of it so I used chicken broth instead. I also had to use ground mustard ( I didn't know how the measurement would translate so I only used 1/4 tsp). I also used fat free sour cream and just used seasoned bread crumbs instead of the croutons and omitted the butter. My chicken breasts were large so I cooked mine for closer to an hour. It was so moist and delicious! I think I could have used more mustard and bread crumbs but it was still good. I will definitely make this again!

Beyond delicious! It reminded me of Swiss fondue except with chicken so that you don't have to eat so much fattening cheese. It couldn't be easier to prepare either. I used whole breasts and got six servings, lowering the calorie count, etc. I didn't use mustard seeds. I used Healthy Choice soup to keep the sodium more manageable. I'm not sure the croutons and butter are necessary.
