Dijon Grilled Chicken
2 Tbsp. Dijon mustard
2 Tbsp. Mayonnaise
2 tsp. cider vinegar
1 tsp. black pepper
1 tsp. salt
2 tsp. minced garlic
4 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves
Slice the chicken down the center (butterfly). Mix all other ingredients together. Place the chicken on the grill and spoon the sauce over each breast. Grill 4-6 minutes, turn and spoon sauce over the cooked side. Grill another 4-6 minutes or until chicken is done. Serves 4
Martha: The sauce for this was found in a 2000 grilling cookbook. I doubled the ingredients because to me there just wasn't enough to go on both sides, plus I split the chicken breasts making them thinner but also giving them a larger surface. And the next time I make this I plan on making even more so it can be spread on thicker. The sauce is delicious and could be used on grilled chicken as well as baked. I really loved it.

Chicken with Squash Dressing
4 chicken breasts
1/2 cup Picsweet Seasoned Onions & Peppers
1 tsp. Italian seasoning
1 pkg. (6 oz.) Cornbread Stuffing Mix
3-4 med. yellow squash
1 can (10 3/4 oz.) Cheddar Cheese Soup
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Place chicken in a 9 x 13 x 2 baking dish. Sprinkle with salt, pepper, Italian seasoning and seasoned onions and peppers. Bake 30-35 minutes or until chicken is done. Peel and slice squash. Place in a saucepan and add enough water to cover. Boil until done. Drain squash. Remove cooked chicken from baking dish. In a large bowl combine squash, stuffing mix and cheddar cheese soup. Pour liquid and cooked onions and peppers form baking dish into squash mixture and stir to blend. Spread squash/dressing mix evenly in the chicken baking dish. Top with chicken and return to oven. Bake 15-20 minutes or until squash/dressing mixture is hot.
Martha: A neighbor brought me some fresh squash and to be honest I only eat squash one way and that is mixed with stuffing and cheese. I had found a recipe for an Italian chicken dish which was supposed to have spaghetti sauce poured over the chicken, onions and peppers. I eliminated the sauce and decided to create a Chicken with Squash Dressing dish instead. This is a simple dish to make and the chicken goes perfectly with the squash dressing. I loved it and all I had to do was add a salad and I have an easy, delicious meal.
Food Tester Carol: Squash casseroles are such a great mainstay of our menus. We loved this blend of squash, chicken and cheddar flavors with the herbed bread stuffing. The stuffing makes it taste like Thanksgiving or like a Sunday dinner all in one dish. You said it was easy and we are going to make this one soon.
