Chicken a la Diable

Chicken a la Diable is a French inspired dish.  It's flavorful, simple, and the dijon mustard really keeps your chicken moist!  It's perfect when you want to add just a little something to your every day chicken dish!

Ingredients:

- 3 large chicken breasts, or 6 small ones, cut into strips
- 3 Tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 1/4 tsp. Cayenne Pepper
- 2 eggs, beaten
- 3/4 cups breadcrumbs
- 3 Tablespoons Butter, melted

Directions:

1.  Preheat your oven to 375 degrees and slice up your chicken breasts.

2.  In a small bowl, mix your mustard and your cayenne pepper.  Brush over both sides of your chicken, coating it well.  After that, pour your melted butter into your baking dish.



3.  Get your dredging station set up.  Beat your eggs in one bowl, put your bread crumbs into another bowl.  Now, dip your mustard covered chicken into the egg, then into the bread crumbs.  Lay your breaded chicken into your baking dish.





4.  Bake your chicken for 30-40 minutes, flipping your strips once in the middle of cooking to brown both sides. 

Here's the final product.....

I served mine with stuffing and salad.  It made the PERFECT weeknight meal!  And, there wasn't a leftover in sight thanks to my kids, who LOVED this!  Enjoy!
