The French Dinner

After the somewhat unfortunate dining experience yesterday, I find myself forced to make something French and delicious. It is really too bad that more often than not I am inspired by restaurants not because their food was great, but because it was disappointing enough that I felt the need to recreate it.

I had a mustard chicken dish at Sorrentino’s and I figured I'd try to make something like that. So, I present to you, Chicken Moutarde! The mustard sauce was smooth and creamy and had a mellow flavor; no harsh vinegar taste. I would omit the bacon if I were to make it a second time, or crisp it up beforehand. Otherwise, a nice dish.

On the side I had some halved roasted potatoes and Tarragon Green Beans in a garlic white wine sauce. This is a nice way to cook pretty much anything from pasta to pork chops, but I like it for green beans especially. The wine and garlic really infuse the beans with flavor.
