Mustard Chicken Pasta

Makes 4 Servings

16 oz. boneless, skinless chicken breasts
Salt & pepper
2 cups Sliced mushrooms
8 oz. barilla angel hair noodles
1 tbsp olive oil, divided
Sauce: 1/2 cup swanson fat-free chicken broth, 1/2 cup fat-free sour cream, 1/4 cup fat-free honey mustard sauce

Set a pot of water to boil. Spray pan set to medium with PAM and drop in 2 tsp olive oil. Between two sheets of waxed paper, pound the chicken with a rolling pin until about a half-inch thick. Season one side with salt and pepper, transfer to the skillet seasoned-side down (the meat should sizzle), then season the top side. Put noodles in water for 4-5 minutes. Cook chicken for 4 minutes on one side, then 3 – 4 minutes on the other side. Transfer to warm plates and cover with foil. Add mushrooms to skillet, stir 1 – 2 minutes until warm. Add sauce over mushrooms and stir for 1-2 minutes while it slightly thickens. Place noodles on plate, and pour sauce/mushrooms over chicken.

Review: We really liked it! I modified it a bit to reduce noodles and double sauce - LOVE it. It's definitely a strong mustard taste, so if you don't like mustard you probably won't love this recipe.

Lime Mustard Chicken

Lime Mustard Chicken
Makes 2 Servings

6 tbsp Texas Pete fat-free honey mustard
1 tbsp lime juice
1 garlic clove, minced
1/2 tablespoon light soy sauce
8 oz. boneless, skinless chicken tenders

I set the oven to broil, put the chicken in the microwave to defrost and got a bowl and stirred together the mustard, lime juice, garlic and soy sauce. Once the chicken was done defrosting, I got a square pan out, sprayed it with PAM and laid the chicken in the pan. I then coated the chicken in half of the mixture and put it into broil for 5 minutes. As it broiled, I cooked 1.5 cups white rice in the microwave. Once the 5 minutes was up, I flipped over the chicken and covered it with the rest of the sauce and let it broil for another 5 minutes. Then I served up the rice, and served the chicken on top.
