Dijon mustard, rosemary and lemon juice season chicken breasts wonderfully in this fuss-free recipe. For an elegant and impressive finish, sprinkle on some toasted almonds and fresh parsley.
Ingredients:
6 boneless skinless chicken breast halves (5 ounces each)
1 cup chicken broth, divided
1/4 cup lemon juice
3 tablespoons dijon mustard
3 garlic cloves, minced
2 tablespoons butter, melted
1/4 teaspoon dried rosemary, crushed
3 tablespoons cornstarch
hot cooked rice
1/2 cup slivered almonds, toasted
3 tablespoons minced fresh parsley
Directions:
1. Place chicken in a 3-qt. slow cooker. In a small bowl, combine 3/4 cup broth, lemon juice, mustard, garlic, butter and rosemary; pour over chicken. Cover and cook on low for 4-5 hours or until a meat thermometer reads 170°. Remove chicken; keep warm.
2. Skim fat from cooking juices; transfer to a small saucepan. Bring liquid to a boil. Combine cornstarch and remaining broth until smooth. Gradually stir into the pan. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened.
3. Serve chicken with rice and sauce. Sprinkle with almonds and parsley. Yield: 6 servings.
