Sooooo delighted with how this turned out -- light, healthy and tasty. The best thing is the sauce. It's mellow -- a little lemony, a little dijon mustardy and a little creamy. I followed the amounts for the sauce exactly. I used about 1 1/2 pounds of chicken breasts, and I steamed my broccoli for 5 minutes instead of just 1. I think next time I'll use crushed potato chips instead of the breadcrumbs. I'm always looking for new things to do with chicken -- aren't we all? And this is the answer for me. I'm already thinking of variations you could do with this. You could do maybe asparagus instead of broccoli, ham instead of chicken, you could throw in some mushrooms, etc.-- though it's perfect as is. So lovely. Clint's already asking when I'll be making again. Thank you for sharing!
