Description

This comforting Chicken & Vegetable Dijon is a quick weeknight favorite that balances savory creaminess with the sharp tang of Dijon mustard. Boneless chicken breasts are pan-seared for color, then gently simmered in a luscious sauce made from condensed soups and milk. Fresh broccoli, sliced mushrooms, and colorful bell peppers add vibrant texture and nutrients, softening perfectly in the warm broth. It&# 226;€™s an easy, one-pan meal that feels indulgent yet simple enough for busy evenings. Serve over pasta or rice to soak up every drop of the flavorful sauce. It’s a reliable, family-pleasing dish that comes together in under forty minutes.

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Pat chicken breasts dry with paper towels and season lightly with salt and pepper if desired.
  2. Heat 1 tablespoon of margarine in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
  3. Add chicken breasts to the skillet and cook for 5-6 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
  4. Remove chicken from the skillet and set aside on a plate.
  5. Reduce heat to medium and add the remaining 1 tablespoon of margarine to the same skillet.
  6. Add sliced onions, mushrooms, green peppers, and red peppers to the skillet.
  7. Sauté vegetables, stirring frequently, for 5-7 minutes until tender-crisp.
  8. Stir in the broccoli soup, cream of chicken soup, milk, and Dijon mustard until well combined.
  9. Bring the sauce mixture to a gentle boil, stirring constantly to prevent scorching.
  10. Return the chicken breasts to the skillet, nestling them into the sauce.
  11. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 10-15 minutes to allow flavors to meld and chicken to heat through.
  12. Serve hot over cooked pasta, rice, or egg noodles.
