GRILLED GARLIC, ROSEMARY AND LEMON DIJON CHICKEN BREASTS
This is a recipe my husband has used for years. He was a chef for 15 years and although it is very simple to prepare and make, it's really delicious. We don't usually measure everything out exactly as given in this recipe, but this just gives you an idea of about how much you'll want for the marinade.

PECAN-CRUSTED CHICKEN BREASTS WITH MAPLE-DIJON SAUCE
From San Francisco Chronicle (2/7/07).. The author writes "This is an ideal entree for entertaining. The chicken can be sauteed several hours ahead, leaving only the baking for last minute. The recipe can easily be doubled or tripled; simply saute the chicken in batches." Note that the nutritional info takes into account the marinade, which you are not actually consuming.

Mix pecans, flour, salt and pepper on a plate. Remove chicken from marinade. Coat chicken on both sides with pecan mixture. If time permits, refrigerate at least 1 hour to help crumbs adhere.

Steps:
- Trim any fat from the chicken breasts. Rinse and pat dry with paper towels.
- One at a time, place each chicken breast between 2 sheets of waxed paper or plastic wrap and, using a rolling in, roll across the thickest part of the breast to flatten to an even thickness of about 1/2 inch (12 mm).
- In a large, preferably nonstick saute pan or frying pan over medium-high heat, melt the butter with the oil. When foaming, add the chicken breasts and sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste.
- Saute, adjusting the heat as needed to keep the breasts from releasing their juices, until golden and just tender, about 5 minutes on each side. Tip: To test for doneness, insert the tip of a sharp knife into the center of each breast; the juices should run clear and the meat should no longer be pink at the center.
- Transfer to a warmed plate and keep warm.
- Pour off any excess fat from the pan and return the pan to medium-low heat. Add the shallots and saute, stirring, until translucent, 1-2 minutes.
- Add the mustard, cream, and white wine, raise the heat to medium and stir with a wooden spoon, scraping up any browned bits stuck to the pan bottom. Cook, stirring, until thickened and blended, 2-3 minutes.
- Taste the sauce and adjust the seasonings. Return the chicken breasts to the pan and turn the breasts over several times to coat them well with the sauce and to heat them through.
- Transfer to a warmed platter or individual dishes and spoon the sauce over the breasts.
- Sprinkle with chopped parsley and serve at once.

Steps:
- Heat oil in a large heavy Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Season chicken breasts with salt and pepper. Place chicken in Dutch oven and cook until brown on both sides, 12-15 minutes total. Transfer to a plate and set aside. Place leeks and onion in same pot and sauté until tender, about 8 minutes. Add garlic and sauté until tender, about 2 minutes. Stir in broth, wine, Dijon mustard, and minced thyme and bring to a simmer. Return chicken to pot. Cover and simmer over medium-low heat until chicken is cooked through, about 15 minutes. Transfer chicken to plates. Bring liquid in pot to a boil; cook until sauce is thickened and glossy, about 15 minutes. Whisk in butter and season with salt and pepper. Spoon sauce over chicken and garnish with thyme leaves.
Tips:
- To ensure the chicken breasts remain juicy, it's crucial to not overcook them. Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature, aiming for 165°F (74°C).
- For a more flavorful dish, consider using bone-in, skin-on chicken breasts. The bones and skin add depth of flavor to the meat.
- If you prefer a crispy chicken crust, sear the breasts in a hot skillet before baking them in the oven. This will create a golden brown exterior while keeping the inside moist.
- Feel free to adjust the amount of Dijon mustard to your taste preference. For a bolder mustard flavor, add an extra tablespoon or two.
- Serve the Dijon chicken breasts with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a crisp salad.
Conclusion:
This Dijon chicken breasts recipe is an easy and delicious way to enjoy a flavorful and juicy chicken dish. With just a few simple ingredients and minimal prep time, you can have a satisfying meal that's perfect for any occasion. The combination of Dijon mustard, garlic, and herbs creates a tangy and aromatic sauce that complements the tender chicken perfectly. Whether you're serving it for a weeknight dinner or a special gathering, this recipe is sure to be a hit.
