Chicken with sun dried tomatoes in a mustard wine sauce

This chicken is so simple but it is SO yummy. Add some pilaf and a veggie and you're good to go.

I have also done this with chicken breast and potatoes. Not tonight.

6 boneless skinless chicken breasts cutlets
Dijon mustard
4 sun dried tomatoes, chopped
White wine
1 tbs butter
Rice Pilaf
1/2 bunch broccoli
1 tbs butter
Kosher salt
Black pepper

Smear some dijon on the chicken cutlets and season with kosher salt and pepper, or the usual chicken seasoning (equal parts paprika, onion powder, garlic powder, salt, pepper). Heat a pan on the stove and add olive oil. Brown the chicken on both sides, cooking long enough to make it cooked through.

Pull the chicken out of the pan and cover with foil. Add some wine to the pan and heat on the stove, along with a dollop of dijon and the sun dried tomatoes. Let it boil down until it starts to thicken a little. Swirl in the butter and pour over the chicken. Start the pilaf when the chicken starts. Chop the broccoli into florets. Steam it for ten minutes over the pilaf while cooking or in a steamer.

I made this tonight with tomato paste instead of sun dried tomatoes and threw the Dijon into the sauce. The broccoli is great with the sauce.
