Poulet Dijon (Dijon Chicken)

"Sautéed chicken in a dijon and white wine sauce. No one ever knows, but this is one of the easiest meals to make! To make the sauce you use the same pan in which you sautéed the chicken. The tasty caramelized bits and left-over fat is what you will be adding the wine and other ingredients to. This is called deglazing. It seems fancy, but it really is simple!"

  • Add 2 Tablespoons of Dijon mustard. Stir.
  • Add 3/4 cup of heavy cream. Simmer gently for a few minutes and serve poured over chicken.
  • NOTE: To keep leftover chicken crusty, I refrigerate the sauce in a separate container.

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I am a college student studying History at a University here in Portland. I live with my fiance and our adorable Rottweiler, Minnie. My oldest favorite cookbook is my moms ragged old copy of The Joy of Cooking; For its amusing illustrations and thoroughness. I especially like Mark Bittman's new revised How to Cook Everything as it is much less intimidating and more practical than Joy of Cooking. My very favorite cookbook of all is Pie by Ken Haedrich. While I adore baking, cooking is still a bit difficult for me. I have the worse time getting several dishes on the table at once while still hot. I'm known for my baked goods like brownies cakes and pies, and for my fantastic burritos which I have never written down a recipe for.
