MUSTARD CRANBERRY CHICKEN BREASTS



Mustard Cranberry Chicken Breasts image

This recipe was in BC Women's magazine several years ago and we love it. The mustard gives it a bit of tang combined with the slight sweetness of the cranberries.If you wish this dish can be made ahead, cover with foil and heat in a 350 oven for 20 min just before serving. March 09I have modified this recipe to cut back on the sauce. I mixed the dijon mustard with 1/4 cup wine, poured it into the skillet 4 minutes before serving and then added the cranberries. It was thick enough with out any cornstarch. Sprinkled green onions on top

Tips:

  • Mise en Place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all the necessary ingredients and equipment ready. This will help you stay organized and ensure that the cooking process goes smoothly.
  • Use Fresh Ingredients: Fresh ingredients will always yield the best results. When possible, use fresh mustard, cranberries, chicken breasts, and herbs.
  • Don't Overcook the Chicken: Chicken breasts are very delicate and can easily become dry if overcooked. Cook them until they reach an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) for best results.
  • Make Sure the Sauce is Thickened: The sauce for this dish should be slightly thickened. If it's too thin, you can add a cornstarch slurry (equal parts cornstarch and water) to thicken it up.
  • Serve Immediately: This dish is best served immediately after it's cooked. The chicken will be most tender and flavorful when it's hot out of the oven.

Conclusion:

Mustard cranberry chicken breasts is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that's perfect for a weeknight meal. It's also a great option for entertaining guests. The combination of tangy mustard, sweet cranberries, and tender chicken is sure to please everyone at the table. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy chicken recipe, give this one a try.
