Ain't nothing wrong with bringing more Dijon into your life. Here, you get to sauce a chicken breast with a luxurious mix of robust Dijon, cream, and rich butter. But mustard isn't the only star of this dish: You'll never eat zucchini the same way after savoring it in this gratin, made with nutty Parmesan and jammy sun-dried tomatoes, and topped with crispy fried onions.

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Trim zucchini ends and slice on an angle into 1/2" rounds.

    Cut sun-dried tomatoes into 1/4" pieces.

    Coarsely crush crispy fried onions.

    Pat chicken breasts dry, and season both sides with 1/4 tsp. salt and 1/4 tsp. pepper.

    If using pork chops, pat dry and season same amount.

  2. 2

    Cook the Zucchini

    Place a large non-stick pan over high heat and add 2 tsp. olive oil.

    Add zucchini to hot pan and stir often until browned but still crisp, 2-3 minutes.

    Remove from burner and stir in sun-dried tomatoes, 1/4 tsp. salt, and a pinch of pepper.

  3. 3

    Make the Gratin

    Place casserole dishes on prepared baking sheet to catch any drips. Transfer zucchini mixture to casserole dishes.

    Wipe pan clean and reserve.

    Pour 1 Tbsp. cream (reserve remaining for sauce) over each dish and top with Parmesan. Bake in hot oven until golden brown, 8-12 minutes.

    Rest baked gratin 5 minutes, then top with crispy onions.

    While gratin bakes, cook chicken.

  4. 4

    Cook the Chicken

    Return pan used to cook zucchini to medium-high heat and add 2 tsp. olive oil.

    Add chicken to hot pan and cook until browned and chicken reaches a minimum internal temperature of 165 degrees, 5-7 minutes per side.

    Transfer chicken to a plate and rest 3 minutes.

    If using pork chops, follow same instructions and cook until chops reaches a minimum internal temperature of 145 degrees, 5-7 minutes per side.

    Reserve pan; no need to wipe clean.

  5. 5

    Make Sauce and Finish Dish

    Return pan used to cook chicken to medium-high heat.

    Add 2 Tbsp. water, reserved cream, and any accumulated juices from resting chicken. Bring to a boil.

    Once boiling, remove from burner. Stir in Dijon and a pinch of salt. Sauce will thicken as it cools.

    Plate dish as pictured on front of card, garnishing chicken with sauce. Serve gratin on a plate or in casserole dish. Bon appétit!
