Chicken a la Diablo
 

Here is another French winter recipe you can try. Chicken à la Diable literally means Devil's Chicken because of the hot spice seasonings (Dijon mustard and cayenne). It goes well with the roasted cauliflower recipe I sent in earlier.

INGREDIENTS:

3 tablespoons Dijon mustard
¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper
2 eggs, beaten
6 boneless chicken breast halves, cut in half lengthwise
¾ cup dry breadcrumbs
3 tablespoons butter
PREPARATION:
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.

Melt the butter in a roasting pan. In a small bowl, mix together the mustard and cayenne pepper. Brush the mustard onto the chicken, and then dip the chicken in eggs and dredge in the breadcrumbs.

Arrange the chicken breasts in the roasting pan and bake 30-40 minutes, turning once. Serve immediately.

Makes 6 servings.
