Ingredients:
3 Tablespoon Dijon mustard
1 Tablespoon Balsamic vinegar
1 Tablespoon olive oil
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
Lemon Dijon Aioli -
3 Tablespoons homemade mayonnaise
1 1/2 Tablespoons lemon juice
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1/8 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon black pepper (or to taste)
Directions:
In a bowl or measuring cup, add the 3T Dijon, Balsamic, olive oil, Worcestershire and black pepper. Mix together until well combined. Rinse the chicken and pat dry with a paper towel. Place in resealable bag and pour marinade over top. Seal and place in refrigerator for at least 2 hours (I let mine side for 4 hours).
Meanwhile, mix together all the ingredients for the aioli in a small bowl. Taste for seasoning. Cover and place in refrigerator until ready to use. Can be store for up to a week.
Preheat grill to 375 degrees F. Clean and oil grill grates. Remove chicken from bag and discard marinade. Place chicken directly over the fire and grill 8-10 minutes per side or until the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees F. Remove from grill and allow to rest for 5 minutes. Serve with aioli and enjoy!

You may have been tired and hurried, but you had your wits about you enough to get a good meal on your table.
Okay, Jenn. This is dinner tonight. I put frozen chicken breasts into the refrig. before going to bed last night, knowing that inspiration would hit eventually. And now it has. I hope your work load lightens. Enjoy the weekend! And thanks for the recipe. :-)
Dijon mustard is one of my favorite ingredients - a schmear for sandwiches, marinades, sauces, even stirred with cream and herbs for pasta! The exhausted may be tempted to eat chips and cookies (been there, done that!), but it's so much nicer and restorative to eat real food with fabulous flavor ... :)
I'm glad you still fed me even though you were exhausted babe. I always appreciate every meal you make. I'm a lucky man. :)
I hear ya! I've been going through those long work days also. My blogging and cooking energy always suffer. I'm such a sucker for any type of mustard, and mostly grab for the dijon.
Looks pretty darned good for a quick meal.
Day jobs are so inconvenient, don't you think? I'm glad that you are holding up and the meal looks great.
