about 6 tbsp olive oil
3 tbsp curry powder
1 tbsp whole-grain mustard
pinch of salt
2 tsp dried herbs de provence, crushed
(if I'm in the mood for slightly crispier, sweeter chicken, I also add a tablespoon of maple syrup)

3 chicken breasts

Mix the first 5 ingredients, and coat the chicken breasts on all sides. Pre-heat the oven to 375. Heat a cast-iron pan on the stove at medium high. When the pan is hot enough that a drop of the oil mixture sizzles on contact, add the chicken to the pan. Fry for 3 minutes, flip, then fry the other side for 3 minutes. Put the whole pan into the oven for 25 minutes. Remove.

Serve with cooked vegetables, mashed potatoes, or rice.

I was trying to figure out what to make for supper tomorrow night and I think I just found it.
