Creamy Dijon Mustard Chicken



On my first trip to France in my early twenties, I came back with a set of French blue handled bistro flatware that I ended up using for years, and 7 jars of various types of Dijon mustard. The mustard! I couldn’t get over how good the mustard was, and so many varieties.

There was Dijon with herbes de provence, Dijon with tarragon, smooth Dijon, whole grain Dijon. For a girl raised on the bright yellow hot dog mustard, I was in heaven. These days I always have at least a couple jars on hand in the fridge, perfect for this Dijon chicken recipe.
