Happy Sunday! Hope you are enjoying the weekend and are looking forward to a good week ahead! Somehow my previous text was erased and so I’m having to recall what I initially wrote. Blah! Saucy Mama recently had a recipe contest among 50 bloggers and I was chosen to participate. Of course, the folks at Saucy Mama didn’t make it so easy. We were to use only 5 ingredients, one being a selection of Saucy Mama ingredients to create an easy recipe. ‘Free ingredients’ included salt, black better, and cooking oil. To kick things off, Saucy Mama sent me a package with the following condiments to play with…
Given this challenge, I came up with an original recipe for Tarragon Lemon Chicken, using Saucy Mama’s Tarragon Lemon Mustard…
2 boneless skinless chicken breasts
1/4 cup Saucy Mama Tarragon Lemon Mustard
salt and pepper to taste
1 cup seasoned breadcrumbs
2 tablespoons olive oil
Place chicken in a zip top storage bag with the mustard and minced garlic. Marinade at least 1 hour up to 3 hours.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Heat a skillet over medium high heat with oil.
Remove chicken from zip top storage bag and season with salt and pepper to your tastes. Dredge chicken in breadcrumbs.
When oil in skillet is hot, add coated chicken and pan fry until browned. Transfer chicken to a baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes or until juices run clear.
I served this over a wild rice pilaf and side salad.

What condiment can you not live without?
I cannot live without whole grain mustard. I used it on sandwiches, in egg cups and on hot dogs. I simply cannot live without it!!
Does butter count, because really I can't imagine a world without butter.

I cannot live with Sriracha hot sauce. I use this stuff on everything! Stir frys, spinach, eggs, chicken. I just love it! It gives you 'hot' with actual flavor, as opposed to just hot with a bunch of salt.
I don't think I could live without BBQ sauce. I put it on everything.

As far as a cooking condiment, I always have lemons on hand for the fresh lemon juice, so I'll say lemon juice.
Spicy brown mustard. Nothing fancy, just good and useful!
Sweet hot mustard. Thank you for hosting this giveaway. 🙂
ketchup– so dull and boring but oh well
That one is easy. Mustard is my "can't do without it" condiment. There are so many varieties and it can be used so many ways. That vinegary tang gives some oomph to so many dishes
Mayo. Thanks!

mmmm, a condiment I can't live without… does salt count? I love my salt, though I do use less.
I cannot live without dijon mustard, it is wonderful in so many different ways.
Favorites are so hard!
Lemons dress up almost anything for me.
Plain ol' ketchup
Sweet hot mustard
horseradish
mayo! Especially homemade!
This is hard cause I really love most of them. I'd probably go with mustard or hot sauce.
I love creamy horseradish so that would be the one I would have to say!
Their Chipotle Ranch looks good!

I'd say mayonnaise. It's a great base for all kinds of sauces, spreads and dips.
I cannot live with out Frank's Hot Sauce. I put it on everything from rice to eggs.

Salsa! Breakfast, lunch, dinner – there's always room for salsa!
Does ranch dressing count as a condiment? I love to dip my veggies in it for a snack each day!
I can't live without honey mustard. It's so versatile – good for dressings, marinades, sauces, etc. I swear, I use it so much, I should buy in bulk!
Hot sauce!

Hot sauce, without doubt!
do Pickles count? I <3 Pickles!
Blue cheese dressing!
I love dijon mustard! I put it in dressings, sandwiches, and dinner recipes. I LOVE it.
We use a lot of hot sauce at our house.
I's have to say sour cream. Love it!
Fresh ground pepper!!

Mustard.
My favorite condiment–ranch dressing!

If I HAD to pick I would probably go with sour cream b/c you can dress it up so many ways.
I can't live without Canadian Heinz Ketchup (Aux Tomates). For some reason the ketchup in Canada just tastes better! My family owns a cottage in Ontario so every summer we stock up on an entire year's supply!

I couldn't live without yellow mustard. Totally generic, but I LOVE it!

I love them all (BUT MAYO!). I'd have to say peanut butter if that counts since I put it on nearly EVERYTHING. Or course ground mustard if I'm going traditional. I can't imagine a sandwich without it!
Siracha! We eat it on almost everything in our house – a little spice without much actual flavor behind it.
