HONEY-MUSTARD CHICKEN PASTA

Steps:

• Cook pasta according to package directions. Meanwhile, in a large skillet, cook bacon over medium heat until crisp. Using a slotted spoon, remove to paper towels. Drain, reserving 1 tablespoon drippings. , In the drippings, saute mushrooms and onion until tender. Add garlic; saute for 1 minute. Stir in the chicken, peas, soup, milk, mustard, honey, parsley, salt if desired, pepper and bacon. Cook and stir over medium heat until heated through. Drain pasta; add to skillet and toss to coat. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese.

CHICKEN WITH MUSTARD CREAM SAUCE AND PASTA

Steps:

• Cook pasta according to package directions. Drain and set aside. While pasta cooks, start cooking the chicken.
• To a large skillet add the olive oil, chicken, and evenly season with 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon pepper, and sauté over medium-high heat for about 6 to 8 minutes, or until chicken is cooked through; flip midway through cooking. If all the chicken doesn't fit in the pan, cook in batches. Remove chicken from pan (keep the oil and cooking juices from the chicken in the pan), place on a plate, and set aside.
• Add the garlic and sauté for 1 minute. Stir intermittently.
• Remove skillet from the heat and add the wine and chicken broth. It will bubble vigorously so use caution. Return the pan to the heat and cook until liquid has reduced by half, about 5 minutes.
• Add the mustards and stir to combine.
• Turn the heat to low and add the cream, stirring to combine. Simmer for about 5 minutes to allow sauce to reduce and thicken.
• Taste sauce and add salt and pepper to taste. Optionally add sugar to taste. The wine I used was quite dry and the spicy grainy brown mustard was quite spicy and I needed a pinch of sugar to balance the flavors.
• Add the chicken back to the skillet and cook over low heat for about 5 minutes, or until chicken is warmed through, and sauce thickens a bit more. It doesn't become 'thick' but by reducing, it thickens a bit. Flip chicken midway through cooking or spoon sauce over the chicken to ensure all sides are evenly coated with sauce.
• Evenly sprinkle with parsley and serve immediately with pasta. I had plenty of extra sauce and spooned it over the pasta. Chicken is best warm and fresh but will keep airtight in the fridge for up to 5 days. Reheat very gently so the sauce doesn't break.

CREAMY MUSTARD CHICKEN PASTA

Steps:

• Get the pasta cooking in a large pot of salted water according to package instructions. Meanwhile, slice the chicken breasts in bite-sized pieces, season with salt and pepper. Heat the olive oil in a large frying pan and brown the chicken on both sides for about 5-7 minutes. Remove to a plate.
• To the same pan, add the chopped shallot and cook for 5 minutes over low heat, then add the minced garlic and thyme and cook for half a minute longer, then deglaze the pan with the white wine and let the wine reduce for 2-3 minutes.
• Add the chicken stock to the pan together with the Dijon mustard and heavy cream, stir to combine and let it simmer for a couple of minutes, season with salt to taste. Bring the chicken back to the pan and coat with the sauce. Drain the pasta and reserve 1/2 cup of the pasta water. Bring the pasta to the pan and toss with the sauce, add a splash of pasta water if the pasta is getting too dry. Add a pinch of salt if needed. Serve topped with grated Parmesan cheese.

CREAMY QUICK AND EASY CHICKEN WITH PASTA

Steps:

• Combine butter and olive oil with onion and garlic in a skillet over medium heat; saute for 3 minutes. Add chicken, Cajun and chicken seasonings, and salt. Reduce heat to medium-low and cook until chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add penne and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 11 minutes.
• Remove 2 tablespoons of the pasta cooking water and add it to the chicken along with the heavy cream, onion powder, garlic powder, and pepper. Stir until well combined and lower the heat; cook for 2 minutes.
• Drain penne, toss with the chicken, then add in mozzarella and Parmesan cheeses. Sprinkle in parsley and green onions and serve immediately.

HONEY-MUSTARD CHICKEN PASTA

Steps:

• Boil the pasta, then cool under running water. Mix the mayo, mustard and honey in a large bowl and loosen with a little water to make a dressing the consistency of double cream. Add the pasta, chicken, onions, basil and tomatoes, season to taste, then gently mix together.

ONE-PAN CREAMY MUSTARD CHICKEN

Steps:

• Pat the chicken thighs dry with paper towels. Combine the 1/4 cup mustard with the paprika, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a small bowl.
• Brush the mustard mixture on the chicken thighs with a pastry brush, coating them on both sides.
• Melt 2 tablespoons of the butter in a large skillet or cast-iron skillet over medium heat. Add the chicken thighs in a single layer. Cook until browned on one side, then flip once and brown the other side, about 10 minutes total. (If necessary, brown the chicken thighs in batches to avoid overcrowding the skillet.) Transfer the chicken to a plate, leaving the drippings in the skillet.
• Increase the heat to medium-high. Carefully add the wine to the skillet and simmer, scraping up any browned bits with a wooden spatula, until the liquid has reduced by half, about 2 minutes.
• Reduce the heat to medium-low and add the remaining 1 tablespoon butter. When it melts, whisk in the flour and cook, whisking constantly, for 1 minute. (The mixture will be very thick.)
• Whisk in the chicken broth, heavy cream, the 2 tablespoons thyme and the remaining 1 tablespoon mustard.
• Return the chicken thighs and any accumulated juices to the skillet, arranging them in a single layer, and cook until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the chicken reaches 165 degrees F, 5 to 7 minutes.
• Transfer the chicken to serving plates, spoon the sauce on top and sprinkle with thyme. Serve with French bread, for dipping.
