Found this exact recipe today on the Gourmet magazine site & made it for supper tonight. I used boneless, skinless chicken breasts cut in half lengthwise. Used equal parts mayonaise & Dijon mustard as I thought all Dijon would be too strong. Glad I did that; the combo was perfect. This chicken had wonderful flavor. Will certainly be adding this to my regular meal file. A real "Keeper".
