Ingredients for Chicken:
4 boneless skinless chicken breasts separated into filet and filet mignion
(Neatly trimmed of all fat and connective tissues)
(Flatten any larger filets with side of chefs knife as needed to achieve uniform thickness)
1 teaspoon lemon juice
1 teaspoon salt
4 tablespoons butter
2 cups diced vegetables, onion, carrot, celery (about 1/4" cubes)
Black pepper to taste

1 tablespoon corn starch
1 cup heavy cream

Wax Paper to cut to fit inside Dutch Oven
Plan to serve over bed of hot steamed white rice
Directions:
Preheat oven to 400
Preheat casserole with lid on medium heat (must be hot going into oven due to short cooking time)
Chicken:

Heat butter in casserole, and then saute vegetables until tender 4-5 minutes
Roll chicken in the butter/vegetable mixture to coat as they are placed in casserole
Cover chicken and vegetables with wax paper to prevent browning.
Cover casserole and place into preheated 400 oven.
After 6 minutes check for doneness, chicken should spring back from touch. Allow 2-3 minutes more if mushy, but do not overcook. Remove chicken to hot bed of hot rice and cover to keep warm while making sauce.
