Honey Mustard Chicken Risoni

Honey & mustard are two ingredients that blend very well together to provide a lovely subtle flavour with neither ingredient being overpowering.  Mixed with cream and you have fantastic sauce that will complement many different dishes.  It is great with either risoni or rice.  It is really special when served with chicken.  This dish uses both chicken & risoni as the base, however it is really the honey mustard sauce that transforms this meal into something special.

The chicken is initially browned & cooked before simmering in a beautiful honey & mustard cream sauce.  Served on a bed of risoni to soak up the wonderfully subtle honey & mustard blend.  Topped with snow peas for a nice crunchy finish.  An amazing transformation of a simple chicken dish.

This dish is simple to make and you don’t need to put aside a lot of time to make a meal the whole family will love and could become a real rotation favourite in your household.
