Living in rural Tuscany has its advantages - home fed chicken! So many of our dinners consist of chicken but to tell you the truth I had never thought of using mustard with it. So thanks to food52 I came up with a new recipe. I had guests for dinner and wanted to make a more elaborate dish so I chose to use only chicken thighs with a very velvety mustard sauce. I chose to cook the sauce in a French style using the classic method of using chicken stock and a little roux to give the sauce more smoothness. The sage and garlic gave it a really nice taste and I served it with mashed potatoes
The refreshing side salad is easy to make ahead: Prepare up to 12 hours in advance and refrigerate, covered. Serve cool or at room temperature with the baked salmon.
It's great to notice that the best dishes are usually the simplest. That is also the case with this simple but superb dish: easy to make, only 5 healthful ingredients and your taste buds hurtle to heaven! (Figuratively speaking...)
If you're unfamiliar with flan, think of it as a tasty variation on custard. One warning, though—it's very filling. A small slice of flan goes a long way! —Pat Forete, Miami, Florida
Coat potatoes with the mixture and place in a shallow pan. I used a slotted spoon to remove the potatoes so I didn' t have pools of oil. Bake for 20 minutes turning occasionally.
These creamy garlic mashed potatoes are so good, you can serve them plain--no butter or gravy is needed. Now, this is the only way we prepare mashed potatoes.
