I liked the chicken with mustard cream sauce on page 216. This recipe appealed to me because it incorporated two ingredients that my daughter and husband love, garlic and mustard. I figured I couldn’t go wrong. Plus, it was in the “16 Minute Meals” section, so win-win! Well, it did not disappoint. I did make a couple of substitutions. Instead of heavy cream, I used whole milk. I also substituted chicken broth for the brandy or white wine. All in all, it was a success. And it really did take around 16 minutes to make! The result was a lovely chicken dish that my husband loved and my picky eleven-year-old actually ate.
