Our last COOKing at Home post provided you with all you needed to prepare a multi-course Indian feast, a perfect weekend project. Today’s post takes you in a completely different direction – a 15-minute, three-ingredient dish perfect for a busy weeknight dinner. This Parmesan Dijon Chicken, courtesy of dietitian and wellness advocate Katie Cavuto of Nourish.Breathe.Thrive, just might become a staple in your home, as it has in Katie’s.

Parmesan Dijon Chicken

1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts or tenders (if breasts, butterfly each lengthwise into two portions)
1/4 cup country dijon mustard
4 oz shredded parmesan cheese, more if needed

Preheat oven to 425°F.

Place the chicken tenders or breasts (butterfly first) in a bowl. Add the mustard. Mix to coat the chicken with the mustard.

Place the cheese on a small plate. “Breading” one piece of chicken at a time, lay the chicken on with cheese to coat each side. Place the cheese coated chicken into a baking dish. No need to oil the pan.

Once all of the chicken is coated with cheese and placed into the pan, place the pan on the middle rack and bake for 12 minutes.

Turn your oven to broil. Broil the chicken for 3-5 minutes to brown. Checking after three minutes to prevent burning.
