Wanna Be Like Martha?

Since classes started again, I haven't really had time to go experience new restaurants in the Greater Boston area every Friday, which is extremely unfortunate. I did enjoy discovering new places to have soul food, pizza or hamburger. However, my little (in ADPi) Caitlin and I have made commitment for a similar activity: trying out new recipes.

Last Thursday, we had our second round of new recipe dinner. Caitlin found a Martha Stewart recipe - chicken with mustard and bread crumbs. It only took about 40 minutes to cook, including the prep time. Also this didn't require too many ingredients at all. Definitely perfect for college students on a budget.

So here's the recipe:

You'll need chicken breasts, salt, pepper, olive oil, bread crumbs, dijon mustard, chicken broth, heavy creme, butter

Step 1.
Brush olive oil on chicken breasts and season them with salt and pepper
Pre-heat the oven to 375 degrees

Step 2.
Cook chicken breasts in a frying pan - about 3 minutes on each side
While waiting, melt 2 tablespoons of butter
Mix the melted butter, dijon mustard and a little bit of salt and pepper

Step 3.
Transfer the chicken to a baking sheet, coat the chicken with the mustard mix and add bread crumbs
**If you don't have bread crumbs, you can crush up croutons and use them instead

Step 4.
Bake chicken in the oven for 15-20 minutes
In the mean time, mix chicken broth and heavy creme (1:1 ratio), bring to a boil and simmer. This will be a really good sauce for the chicken.

Step 5.
When the chicken's done, take it out of the oven, serve with sauce!

Prettyyyyyy simple. Caitlin and I definitely loved this and we made enough to serve three other people. Lovely!
