TOP SECRET RECIPES | T.G.I. FRIDAY'S DIJON CHICKEN PASTA ...
That creamy, white Dijon sauce that smothers the original version of this delicious pasta is luscious indeed but cursed by oodles of flabby fat grams. This can be fixed in our reduce-fat clone by using strained fat-free yogurt-an ingredient apparently inspired by the ancient Mediterranean technique of straining yogurt through a cheesecloth-that adds a thick, creamy conistency to our sauce without adding fat.

Let's cook Chicken Dijon today!
Chicken Dijon
Chicken Dijon is a classic creamy French Mustard Chicken preparation where chicken is cooked in skillet with onions and a creamy Dijon mustard, tarragon, white wine and crème fraiche (French cultured cream) sauce. In America, Dijon Chicken name is often confused with sweet and sour Honey Dijon Chicken. This post is for the French Mustard Chicken Dijon recipe. (I'll also share Honey Dijon Chicken on blog in coming days.)
This recipe is inspired from Ina Garten's Mustard Chicken recipe. I'm fan of her simple cooking style yet bold flavor recipes.
My special touch and flavor secrets for Chicken Dijon are: a little bit garlic plus pepper crust on the chicken breast.
- Garlic compliment the creamy mustard flavor.
- Skinless chicken breast is low-carb. Also pepper crust gives it extra flavor.
I'm sure you will love it.
What Do You Need To Make Chicken Dijon?
There are three main ingredients for Chicken Dijon i.e. Dijon mustard, chicken and crème fraiche (cultured cream). I use combination of whole grain and traditional Dijon mustard.
Here is the complete list of what you need to make Chicken Dijon:
- Chicken Breast
- Dijon and Whole Grain Mustard
- Crème Fraiche (cultured cream)
- Olive Oil
- Chicken Stock
- White Wine
- Tarragon
- Garlic (not traditionally used but I highly recommend it for this recipe.)
- Salt and Pepper
Quickly Cooked Chicken Breast for Chicken Dijon
To speed up and even cooking of chicken breast, I use halved, boneless and skinless chicken breasts for this recipe. i.e. one chicken breast yields two pieces.
To develop delicious pepper crust on chicken breast (our family favorite) and speedy even cooking, I do following:
- Place chicken breast halves on a large sheet of parchment paper. Sprinkle half of black pepper and salt on the top.
- Flip the chicken so the bottom side is up. Sprinkle remining half of the black pepper and salt on the top.
- Cover the chicken with parchment and pound gently until chicken breasts are mostly evenly thick.
Above steps infuse the seasonings into the chicken, pepper curst is delicious, and chicken breast cooks very quickly (about 3 minutes each side for 3/4 inch thick cutlets). The crust is phenomenal.
Creamy Mustard Sauce
Once chicken is cooked through, mustard sauce for chicken comes together in just 10 minutes.
To make the mustard sauce, I sauté onions in the same skillet in which chicken was seared. Onions pick up all flavor bits of chicken from the skillet and become very delicious. Once onions are soft, a quick deglaze with white wine and stock, followed by adding Dijon mustard, tarragon and cream makes a creamy and delicious Mustard Sauce.
Add cooked chicken back in to warm up in the sauce. That's it. Creamy mustard chicken is ready to serve.
This Mustard Chicken recipe is extra flavorful because:
- Chicken cooks in same skillet and onions pick all of the flavor from the caramelized bits.
- Use of two kind of mustard brings out the mustard flavor in sauce (without making a too-yellow-ish sauce).
- Garlic and pepper add bold flavors.
- Chicken gets very flavorful, succulent when returned back to creamy mustard sauce. (moist, juicy, YUM)
While searing chicken, make sure to reserve the juices collected at the bottom of pan. These juices added back to cream sauce make sauce extra delicious!
What to Serve with Chicken Dijon
The best way to enjoy the creamy mustard sauce is to serve Chicken Dijon with pasta. Pasta such as Spaghetti or Angel Hair egg pasta. Naan or Pita Bread can also be served to scope the creamy sauce.
To serve low-carb, try zoodles made of zucchini, or cauliflower rice.
Substitutes
- If can't find crème fraiche then use sour cream. Sour cream and Crème Fraiche both are cultured creams. I often use on or the other for this recipe.
- Regular heavy creamy can also work in place of Crème Fraiche. If using heavy cream, add 1/2 tsp lemon juice to replicate the tang of cultured cream.
- If don't have chicken stock, use vegetable stock or use 1/3 of a bouillon cube mixed with 1/2 cup of hot water.
- You can also cook chicken thighs (boneless and skinless) instead of chicken breast. Thighs cook even more moist and juicier. If planning to use chicken thighs with skin, adjust the cooking time accordingly. Also make sure chicken is fully cooked and skin is crispy before adding the liquid.
Friends, cook something different for the dinner tonight. This delicious and creamy Dijon Mustard Sauce Chicken will make dinner very special. 28 mins to make Chicken Dijon with side of pasta or cauliflower rice to mop the creamy sauce. Dinner is served! How good does that sound?! :-)
