Chicken Divan in 10 minutes




Chicken Divan - or simply chicken in mustard sauce. 
Serves 4 adults

Olive oil
2 chicken breasts - cut into chunks
Salt and pepper
1 bag frozen broccoli (I like the steam in bag ones)
1/2 cup chicken stock
4 tbsp Dijon mustard
4 tbsp sour cream
1/2 cup shredded Swiss cheese

Cook broccoli in microwave
Preheat oven broiler
Heat oil in a large oven proof skillet over medium heat - add chicken and cook 5 minutes or until cooked through
Turn heat down to low
Scoot chicken pieces to one side of the pan
Add chicken stock, mustard and sour cream.  Stir together until a smooth sauce is formed
Add broccoli
Sprinkle with cheese
Place skillet under broiler just until cheese melts

Serve with couscous or just some bread to soak up the yummy sauce.

You can make this using whole breasts instead of chunks by cooking the chicken in the olive oil then removing from the pan into an oven safe dish.  Then build the sauce and pour on top of the chicken breasts and broil.
