Dijon Chicken with Pasta

From the kitchen of Sally Hayes

Ingredients

  • 6 chicken breast halves
  • 3/4 cup butter or margarine
  • 1/3 cup sliced green onions
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
  • 3 1/2 Tbsp Dijon mustard
  • 12 oz fettuccine

Instructions

  1. Loosen the skin from the breast halves, forming a pocket without detaching the skin; set aside.
  2. Combine the butter and the next 3 ingredients (green onions, parsley, and Dijon mustard), mixing well.
  3. Place 1 1/2 tablespoons of the butter mixture under the skin of each piece of chicken, reserving the remaining mixture.
  4. Place the chicken skin side up in a lightly greased 13x9x2-inch baking dish.
  5. Bake at 350° for 1 hour, basting occasionally with the drippings.
  6. Cook the fettuccine in a Dutch oven according to package directions; drain and return to the pot.
  7. Add the remaining butter mixture, tossing well.
  8. Serve with the chicken.
