Ingredients

Directions

  1. Step 1

    In shallow bowl, combine flour, lemon pepper and dry mustard. Dip each chicken breast in flour mixture, shake to remove excess and set on clean plate.
  2. Step 2

    In large skillet, heat 2 tsp (10 mL) canola oil over medium-high heat. When canola oil is hot, add three chicken breasts and cook for 2-3 minutes or until lightly browned. Turn over and cook additional 2-3 minutes until lightly browned. Remove to clean plate. Add remaining 1 tsp (5 mL) canola oil and repeat with remaining three chicken breasts.
  3. Step 3

    To same saucepan, add 1 tbsp (15 mL) canola oil and heat over medium heat. Add shallots and cook 1-2 minutes until translucent; do not brown. Add Dijon mustard, tarragon, lemon juice and honey and stir to combine. Return all chicken breasts to saucepan, spooning sauce over chicken and cook 4-6 minutes or until chicken has reached internal temperature of 170 ºF (77 ºC) on instant-read thermometer.
