I hope you enjoy these recipes as much as I do. The best way to cook, I think, is to take an idea and make it your own and that's kind of what I do with the recipes I've brought here. Some are healthy and some are definitely not, but hopefully they will inspire you to spend more time in your kitchen.

Chicken Dijon

What you need:
  • 2 large chicken breasts, cut lengthwise to make 4 thin cuts of meat
  • lemon pepper
  • garlic salt
  • 3 Tablespoons butter
  • 3/4 cup to 1 cup chicken broth
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream, half and half, or even milk
  • 3 Tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 1 Tablespoon dijon mustard

What you do:

Melt butter in pan over medium heat. Season chicken on both sides with lemon pepper and garlic salt. Brown chicken in pan on both sides until chicken is done - about 20 minutes. Remove from heat and place in a baking dish in oven set to 200 degrees to keep warm. Pour pan juices into measuring cup and fill to 1 cup mark with chicken broth. Pour into hot pan to deglaze. Mix together the flour and milk with a whisk until well combined and pour into pan. Stir often and cook until bubbly and thickened. Let bubble for about 2 minutes and then stir in dijon mustard. Place chicken breasts into sauce and spoon sauce over the top. Serve with poppyseed noodles, buttered noodles or rice.
