Creamy Chicken Dijon

  • 4

Ingredients

  • 3 tablespoons light mayonnaise
  • 2 tablespoons fat-free plain yogurt
  • 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
  • 1 teaspoon honey or the equivalent in artificial sweetener
  • 1 pound skinless, boneless chicken breasts
  • 1 teaspoon dried parsley

Preparation

Step 1

To make sauce: mix mayonnaise, yogurt, mustard, and honey to make the sauce. Set aside.

To cook chicken: follow the directions for microwave or conventional oven.

Microwave oven: Arrange chicken in a microwave-safe dish that has been sprayed with nonstick cooking spray. Cover, venting the lid, and cook on high for 6 to 8 minutes, rotating 1/4 turn halfway through cooking time. The time will vary depending on the thickness of the chicken. Drain the liquid, reserving 3 tablespoons. Mix the 3 tablespoons of reserved liquid with the sauce and pour over the chicken. Sprinkle with parsley. Cover and cook for 1 to 2 minutes or until the chicken is no longer pink and the sauce is heated.

Conventional oven: Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Arrange chicken in 8 x 8-inch pan that has been sprayed with nonstick cooking spray. Bake chicken, covered, for 20 minutes. Drain liquid, reserving 3 tablespoons. Mix 3 tablespoons of reserved liquid with sauce and pour over chicken. Sprinkle with parsley. Return to oven for 5 minutes or until chicken is no longer pink and sauce is heated.
