Chicken Dijonnaise

 
6.1k

So quick and the cream sauce was spectacular. Just a hint of mustard and the fresh herbs really brought it to life. I cut down on the cream and it still made plenty of sauce. Worthy of licking the plate clean, although I used some french bread to sop it up!

3/12: If you do WW Points Plus as this is prepared is 11 points!!! Way too high but could be cut back some. I'll look around but it looks delish. Just not going to give up 11 point for a piece of chicken by itself.

Replace the cream with milk thickened with a bit of cornstarch. Will help keep your WW points down.

I made this recipe tonight and it was awesome. I used a whole cut up skinless, boneless chicken. I poured the sauce over the chicken and baked covered at 300 for a half hour. Then I served it over rice. Yummy

Great recipe! I made it with extra virgin olive oil and almond milk instead of cream - It was still amazing! (for the lactose intolerant:)

I do not use cream and just add a pinch of corn starch. Light and delicious.
