Chicken with Mustard Cream Sauce

This dish is easy, requires simple ingredients and is delicious. It comes together quickly making it a perfect week night meal.

I served this chicken and sauce over noodles, because I had a few partial boxes that I wanted to finish up. Rice would also work well with this dish, in fact I think I would prefer rice over noodles.

Update: I now serve this over rice and like it much better than over noodles.
