Chicken With Cranberry-Dijon Mustard Sauce image

The cranberry- Dijon mustard sauce was originally a dip recipe found on oceanspray.com and switched to a sauce for chicken. Recipe #188835 is identical to the way I prepare homemade cranberry sauce. I try to keep a bag of frozen whole cranberries on hand for these type of recipes. Super easy for a weeknight meal.

I'm not a big fan of cranberry sauce, but I loved this dish! The Dijon mustard mellowed out the tartness of the cranberries, and the sauce was so flavorful. The chicken was also cooked perfectly.

The sauce was amazing! I used a whole grain Dijon mustard, and it gave the sauce a nice depth of flavor. The chicken was also very tender and juicy. I served it over rice, and it was a delicious and easy weeknight meal.
