Dijon Chicken
This is an excellent dish! I made this on 3 Sep 2016, very easy to put this together with common and minimal ingredients. I found this recipe on a recipe site and read all the reviews and made a few changes based on the reviews. This recipe reflects those changes. Link to the shortcut is listed in the Recipe Notes section.
Ingredients
- 4 chicken breasts, boneless and skinless
- 1/2 cup Dijon mustard
- 1/2 cup mayo
- 1/2 cup evaporated milk
- 1/3 cup dry bread crumbs, OR use make with a shortcut on this site
- 200 grams Mozzarella Cheese, shredded, this is one block, Caroline brand
- black pepper, to taste
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 180 C (350 F). Lightly grease a 9x13 baking dish with butter, set aside. Pat the chicken dry with paper towels.
- In a shallow dish, whisk together the mustard, mayo, and milk. In another shallow dish, mix together 2/3 the cheese and bread crumbs. Photo shows my cluttered counter, the cheese and bread crumb mix, the milk mix, and the greased baking dish. Set everything up like an assembly line to make this go very fast. And for those paying attention, I did swap the order of the plates, milk mix, breadcrumbs, then the baking dish.
- Take each chicken breast and coat both sides in the milk mix, then coat in the bread crumbs mix, place in the baking dish.
- Pour the remaining mustard and milk mixture over the chicken.
- Then sprinkle on the remaining cheese. Add black pepper if desired.
- Bake for 30 to 45 minutes until cooked through, cut one breast in half to check. Serve. On pasta is great with some of the sauce spooned over the pasta, and a vegetable on the side would make this a complete meal.
Notes
Chicken breasts will run about 67 Baht/kilo boneless with skin on, just remove the skin and you are set. 4 breasts would likely be less than that, but I will figure at 67 Baht. The block of 200 grams of cheese will cost about 142 Baht. This is about $1.55 per serving for 4 servings.
