Directions
Follow This Recipe
- Preheat oven at 375 degrees.
- Pound the breasts thin and cut into servings. Set aside.
- In a blender place the garlic. basil, olive oil, vinegar, water and pulse until pureed.
- Salt and pepper the chicken slices
- Coat the chicken slices in Dijon mustard
- Place blender contents into the bottom of a pyrex pan.
- Place the chicken in the sauce and coat a few times by flipping the chicken over.
- If you have the time, place chicken mixture in the fridge for an hour to marinate.
- Remove from fridge and rest so the glass is not cold.
- Add sliced onions, mushrooms and basil to the top of the chicken and place in the oven for 30 minutes
- Add tomatoes, whole or sliced and bake for about 10 more minutes or until chicken is fully cooked.
- Serve with brown rice and a salad. ProTips
- This is a really simple meal with simple ingredients so quality is key. Splurge for a good balsamic or a rich dijon. It’ll be worth it I swear.
- I like my tomatoes under roasted and just ready to burst so I don’t like them in for too long. If you like yours roasted, put them in with the onions.
