Our Italian butcher, here in town, makes the best Chicken Dijon ever. It’s the shops’ biggest seller, and for good reason ~ it is delicious, and the smell of garlic as it’s baking is over the top with aroma!

Richie won’t share the recipe ~ this is how close I came to it.
I realized too late, I should’ve lightly pounded the chicken to flatten or cut it in half horizontally.
This turned out close to the shops’, but there are some spices missing that I haven’t figured out yet. And he probably adds more garlic.
Meanwhile, this was very good, Bill and I were happy with it!
