Mustard Chicken

Wednesday, November 5, 2008

Everybody has that one “Go To” dish. The one that goes together quickly for a week night dinner. The one that the children will actually eat. The one that you hope and pray leaves leftovers for lunch the next day.

At our house, that one dish is Mustard Chicken.

4 ingredients! Love that. Love the fact that it goes together in minutes. Love even more the fact that the children request it. Make extra...it's just as good the next day.

INGREDIENTS
Chicken breasts, trimmed of fat
Yellow mustard
Bread crumbs or Panko
Vegetable Oil for frying

DIRECTIONS

Coat the chicken breasts with mustard. It doesn't have to be perfect, but don't be shy with the mustard. Trust me...it will make the chicken very moist, and the flavor doesn't overpower.




Cover the mustard coated chicken breasts with bread crumbs or Panko. I prefer Panko. Feel free to season the coating...I usually use Italian Season, Salt and Granulated Garlic.


Make sure you have a willing helper!


Put a decent amount of oil in a skillet, and put your chicken in nice hot oil. You want these babies to get nice and golden brown.



If you have big, fat chicken breasts, it's best to finish them in the oven. The breading tends to get too dark on the stove if the chicken is thick. Make sure you use the grungiest, most stained cookie sheet you own for this step!


We usually serve with rice pilaf, but goes just as well with potatoes or pasta.

ENJOY!

Cheers,
Christine
