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.
