This recipe was awesome!! I used cabernet sauvignon instead of the suggested alcoholic beverage. It was great. Sure it was a deep purple looking sauce, but the taste was great. I cooked my spinach, as I always do, with nothing on it. I look for my flavor from the protein that I prepare. My teen daughter, who is an extremely picky eater, loved it, asked that I keep the recipe, and has requested it. That told me everything I needed to know... One more thing, follow the recipe as instructed and you won't go wrong. Did not use parsley.

Chicken sprinkled with rosemary only
Cooked chicken in olive oil
removed chicken from skillet
added shallots to skillet
added wine to de-glaze pan
added chicken broth
stirred in dijon mustard (measure it
Add chicken and spoon sauce over (not much sauce
Served with spinach & brown rice. Also works very well with asparagus

I fixed this for my girl-friend who is a nationally renowned personal trainer. We both loved it! The sauce was a bit too runny, so I should have put a small tablespoon of flour to thicken it up, but that's just my personal taste. The Spinach was delicious and I'm NOT a big cooked spinach guy...this changed my taste! Great job guys....so healthy too!!!!

I followed the recipe, but did double the sauce as far as the brandy and chicken broth went, as I was serving it with pasta. It was a bit salty, no doubt from the mustard. Next time omit all salt and then salt at the table if you need it. Awesome, and the chicken was tender and juicy...a keeper for sure.

Everyone is right, this recipe is really good. The chicken was extremely tender. I may have used a bit too much of the Dijon mustard (I eyeballed it which made the sauce a little sharp. However, I added a splash of Half and Half which really helped to soften the taste. Just a tip in case you find the sauce too sharp. Also, I used red wine, but I can see how the brandy would make it better. The red wine with a bit too much of the mustard probably contributed to the tangy taste.

This recipe is very good. It reminds me of the Steak Diane recipe from Emeril since the sauce also uses shallots, Dijon mustard and brandy. The sauce however still tasted like alcohol. I tried to cook it a bit longer, but the flavor was still intense. I think next time I will ignite the brandy with a match to cook off the alcohol (the directions given in the Steak Diane recipe.

I mixed in some collard greens with the spinach which was a nice touch.

Overall a good, healthy meal with a sauce good enough for a piece of steak.

The best! I used ingredients that I already had such as horseradish mustard, cracked pepper, turkey stock and brandy. I did not make the spinach and substituted summer squash instead. Next time I will double the sauce. A new favorite recipe!

No joke, this was the best chicken recipe I have ever had. It was such a hit that I actually registered for an account just so I could post the review! I ended up using cracked pepper instead of peppercorn, but this was the juiciest/yummiest chicken I have ever made.
After removing the chicken for the pan, I used onions and garlic, then deglazed the pan with a mixture of white wine and chicken stock for the sauce. It was insanely good!

This turned out good for me. I forgot to buy coarsley ground mixed peppercorns, so I had to use cracked pepper and it made it a bit strong. I think if I would of had the mixed peppercorns it would of been tastier. I used red wine, and it was really good! I think next time I'l remember the peppercorns and use brandy. I didn't buy enough spinach (only 10 oz, it really cooks down so make sure if your serving 4 people you buy enough! :
