Chicken in a Balsamic Dijon Sauce image

This reciped is adapted from Suzanne Sommers. I serve this along side with Rice a Roni Chicken and Mushroom rice. The sauce is good over the rice. I double the sauce. Steamed asparagus pairs nicely with it. Leftover sauce is also good served along side a nice juicy grilled ribeye!!

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
