Chicken Dijon is an easy and elegant dish with fabulous flavor. This Chicken Dijon recipe (also
 

occasionally referred to as Chicken Dijonaisse) features chicken breasts that are fried with a little butter and oil in the skillet until lightly browned yet still tender inside. A creamy sauce made with heavy cream, Dijon mustard, white wine, chopped onion and assorted herbs is simmered, then draped over the tops of the chicken breasts, giving them rich golden color, elegance and exquisite flavor.

 

One of the herbs used with this recipe is dried rosemary, which you may notice you have in the small stick-like form. If you would prefer to not have the rosemary in this stick form in your sauce, you can easily grind them to

powder form in a coffee grinder, if you have one handy. Chicken Dijon is delicious served on its own or with any type of rice.
