So much flavor. Very easy to make. Great for a weeknight. Husband and 6 year old daughter have requested 3 times since I made it last month!

I took the advice of other reviewers and cut the mustard to about a heaping tablespoon. My family loved it! And I loved how easy it was to make!!!

I didn't have any dijon mustard (plus I did not think the kids would go for that)so I added a small can of tomato sauce. I sauteed some sliced zucchini and yellow squash in olive oil and baked them with the chicken and pesto. It was delicious!!!
