You start by searing bone-in chicken breasts in a frying pan just long enough to get them nice and browned, about 10 minutes. In the meantime, mix up a quick sauce of Dijon mustard and poultry seasoning, and chop up a few onions and carrots…for this recipe I like getting large sweet onions. Once the chicken is browned, spread the mustard sauce over it and pop it in a roasting pan with the veggies. Now roast it for about 40 minutes. Your chicken will be tender and juicy and the veggies will have a lovely half soft and half crispy texture.
Sprinkle some chopped parsley on top and grind some pepper over the whole thing and voila! Sunday dinner on Thursday. Or Wednesday. Or even on a Sunday where you want to spend a little less time in the kitchen. It’s like having your cake and eating it too. Or your chicken. You get my general drift…

I love Sunday Suppers, too. They just seem to make the world a little bit brighter for the week ahead. Almost like fitting us with a big comfy armor against anything the MondayTuesdayWednesdayThursday has to throw our way. Love this chicken. Your photos are always mouth-watering!
Thanks Robyn! And I feel exactly the same way about Sundays – they are my recharging day!
I sometimes try to make Sunday dinners on Thursday mornings…and I just end up late for work.
LOL! Try this one on a Thursday night and see if that works better!
Yum! This sounds so delicious and I love the quickness of it with the result of a truly “Sunday” dinner
I’m so glad you like the look of it – happy “Sunday”!
I love Sunday suppers too and if our daughter can join us… all the better!
Great day to cook and if leftovers.. all the better !
This looks great!
Supper is ALWAYS better with a daughter at the table.
Kate,
This looks wonderful…and looks like a great dish for a crowd. Have you tried making it ahead and freezing? Or is there another of your wonderful dishes you’d recommend?
Always fun to peruse–and try your recipes. Thanks for posting!
HAPPY NEW YEAR to you, The Southern Husband AND The Southern Daughter!

Hi Anita! I haven’t tried making this ahead and freezing it because it goes so quickly…tell me what you have in mind and I’d be happy to recommend something for you! Happy New Year to you and yours too.
Made this meal this evening, easy, quick, time to clean up kitchen and take a shower while baking. Best of all it was very good. Husband said it was a definite do over
We liked thighs and wings the best (I used a whole chicken).
The husband seal of approval is always great! Glad you liked it!
I make a meal just like this, but I mix capers and garlic in with the Dijon and deglaze the pan with dry sherry and a little butter at the end for a really excellent sauce. I love Dijon and chicken! Thanks!
Hope all your birthdays, your anniversary and holiday events were the best. Happy New Year a little bit late.
Well that sounds A-MAZING! Trying that next! Happy new year to you and yours too.
It was so easy and delicious!!! Thank you!!!
My pleasure- glad you liked it!
In my home, we have a “meat vs. meat” issue. We both love red meat, yet my boyfriend dislikes chicken. That is, unless I can constantly find new dishes. This one, I MUST try. Looks like Friday’s dinner is planned.
Fingers crossed that he liked it!!
At lunch today I went ahead and started the recipe (sans the veggies) and my husband finished it up. We had a pack of thighs that needed cooking NOW ~ he sent me a pic and they look great!! Will post and tag you on Instagram!! Great recipe!!
Thank you! (Love Instagram!)
