Chicken With Basil And Mustard Sauce Recipes

BAKED HONEY MUSTARD CHICKEN

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Sprinkle chicken breasts with salt and pepper to taste, and place in a lightly greased 9x13 inch baking dish. In a small bowl, combine the honey, mustard, basil, paprika, and parsley. Mix well. Pour 1/2 of this mixture over the chicken, and brush to cover.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes. Turn chicken pieces over and brush with the remaining 1/2 of the honey mustard mixture. Bake for an additional 10 to 15 minutes, or until chicken is no longer pink and juices run clear. Let cool 10 minutes before serving.

CHICKEN WITH BASIL AND MUSTARD SAUCE

Steps:

• Stir flour, salt and pepper together. Dredge chicken in this mixture and set aside.
• In a bowl, add broth, wine and dijon mustard.
• In a pan, heat olive oil and fry chicken for 2 minutes per side. Remove and set aside.
• Heat more oil in the pan and fry shallots for 30 seconds. Add in your wine/broth/mustard mix and bring to a boil.
• Add chicken in and cook another 2 mins per side.
• Serve with crusty bread.

GRILLED CHICKEN WITH MUSTARD SAUCE

Steps:

• To make Basil Butter: In small saucepan, melt the butter or margarine over low heat. Stir in 1 teaspoon garlic powder, the basil, and the 3/4 teaspoon onion powder. Set aside.
• To make the Mustard Sauce: Stir together all ingredients in a small bowl. Refrigerate sauce until you are ready to serve.
• To prepare the chicken: Trim any fat, rinse and pat dry. Place each breast between two pieces of plastic wrap. Working from the center to the outer edges, pound lightly with the flat side of a meat mallet to 1/4-inch thickness. Remove plastic wrap.
• Grill the chicken for 10 to 12 minutes or until the chicken is tender and no longer pink. Halfway through the grilling, turn the chicken over and generously brush each with the Basil Butter Sauce. Serve the chicken with the mustard sauce.
• I have always served the Mustard Sauce cold, however, it can be served warm. After mixing, place it in a small sauce pan and cook and stir until heated through. Keep warm until serving.
• I uaually double the sauce recipe to have extra on hand. It is excellent on ham and roast beef as well.
