Category: Main Dish, Pasta, Poultry

 Ingredients List

  • 32 oz Chicken
  • 4 tb Butter; melted
  • 4 tb Mustard (mild)
  • 2 tb Lemon juice
  • 1 tb Brown sugar
  • 1 ts Paprika
  • 3 tb Poppy seeds (I used sesame
  • -seeds)
  • 14 oz Pasta shells
  • 1 tb Olive oil
  • Salt & pepper to taste

 Directions

Place chicken in large ovenproof dish.

Mix together the butter, mustard, lemon juice, sugar and paprika in a bowl
and season to taste with salt and pepper. Brush the top of the chicken with
the mixture and bake for 15 minutes at 400 degrees.

(If you are using sesame seeds rather than poppy seeds, toast them in a
thin layer on a tray for 10 minutes in the 400 degree oven.)

Turn the chicken over and coat the remaining surfaces with the mustard
mixture. Sprinkle seeds on top and cook for another 15 minutes.

While chicken is cooking, bring a large pan of lightly salted water to a
boil. Add pasta and olive oil. Cook until tender but still slightly firm.

Drain pasta and arrange on a warmed serving dish. Top with the chicken and
pour the sauce from the pan on top of the chicken and pasta. Serve
immediately.
