Bake for 30 minutes at 375℉
Allow chicken to rest for 5 minutes before slicing and topping with the creamy dijon sauce.
Creamy Dijon Sauce
When the chicken has 10 minutes left on its cook time, begin the dijon sauce.
Preheat a saucepan or skillet, add the butter, onion, and garlic. Saute for a minute or two, allowing the onions to slightly brown on the edges.
Add half the chicken broth to the pan. This will lift the flavors. Stir well, scrapping the sides of the pan.
Add the mustard and heavy cream, stir well and allow the sauce to simmer for the next 5 minutes. Make certain to stir occasionally to ensure the sauce isn't burning.
TO SERVE: Slice chicken roulade into 1/2 inch slices, spoon dijon sauce on top and enjoy!
