Gloria's dijon chicken breasts

Chicken second courses

When my mom passed away I “inherited” a recipe binder that I had given her. In her meticulous way, she had organized all the recipes into categories, titling each page in her familiar handwriting. Since then, I’ve used many of the recipes that she had collected. But my favorite is a recipe for grilled Dijon chicken breasts. It’s written in her handwriting on a sheet of stenographer paper, and I don’t know where the recipe originally came from. Though I keep it in a plastic sleeve, it’s now smudged and a little torn. I’ve adapted the recipe so it’s baked not grilled, but I always think of mother when I make it.
