I’m telling you, the sauce on the chicken is so good that you will want to use it in other fast chicken recipes too. It can easily make simple roasted chicken pieces and any other quick chicken recipe look like you spend a lot of time and effort on it. So if you need a recipe to impress someone, just try this one! They will continually ask what you put in that super flavorful chicken with creamy mustard sauce. They might guess all the ingredients, but won’t be able to find one. Yes, this recipe has a secret ingredient which balances all the flavors combined and gives a subtle refreshment to the chicken pieces and the sauce. I’m talking about ginger – both powder and fresh, used both to coat the chicken cutlets and in the sauce.

You know if chicken breasts are not cooked in the right way, you end up with dry and tasteless chicken pieces and nobody loves that. So you should know a few tips that you need for all chicken cutlet recipes.

Cut the chicken breasts lengthwise in half to have thinner slices. Place the thin chicken cutlets between two pieces of plastic wrap and pound them with a mallet or the bottom of a jar to make them even thinner. Season both sides of the cutlets with the spices and cook them in a skillet until golden brown on both sides. Chicken breast is never boring with this method.

What I love about this recipe is that the creamy sauce is cooked in the same skillet. Just transfer the cooked chicken cutlets on a plate and start cooking the sauce in the skillet.

If you are looking for easy, tasty and quick chicken recipes for two, give this chicken with creamy mustard sauce a try! I’m sure it will become your favorite and you will make it whenever you have some guests over for dinner.
