Camembert Chicken Reviews
Just as advertised, very easy and ritzy. As usual I made a few small changes to the recipe. Our son was home from college with a group so I had to multiply and as the number changed, I changed the principle method of cooking the chicken from pan to oven. The only thing I would change is how to handle the cheese. Camembert is very similar to Brie which could be used. I wasnt sure how to handle the corn starch skin. I reasoned the corn starch would become incorporated and add to the thickening. It didnt. The next time I thought I would heat the cheese separately and add it to the green onion butter mixture, dont. Next time Ill trim the cheese "skin" and have a snack while cooking. This recipe is a keeper, quick easy and kinda fancy.
I used brie (rind removed) instead of Camembert, and the sauce came out smooth, rich, and very tasty with a hint of spiciness from the mustard. I also used only 2 chicken breasts and used the extra sauce over steamed asparagus spears -- DELICIOUS
What a delicious meal, and so easy to make. The mustard in the sauce added that extra flavour.
This is a WINNER. Rich and creamy with a great depth of flavor from the mustard, green onion and Camembert. This is a great low-carb dinner recipe too if you OMIT FLOUR and use HEAVY CREAM(it will thicken itself,if you cook down) instead of milk. The "star" of this recipe, is the avocado, so I wouldnt skip that. Nicole Jansen, this is excellent If I wasnt doing low-carb, I wouldnt of changed a thing; esp. the Camembert. Thank you for a different,delicious, quick and great- for-company recipe
Very quick and easy And so delicious. I followed someone elses suggestion and made less chicken and used the rest of the sauce over cooked asparagus...oh to die for We will definitely make this again.
Excellent and easy Rather than make the sauce in a separate pan, I removed the chicken breasts from the frying pan, deglazed with a little wine, then continued with the sauce, adding more onion that called for. Delicious
I was unimpressed. It was okay, but I was expecting much better.
Absolute LOVED this recipe Going to make it again tonight I really like the tangy-ness of the mustard :-)
I made this last night, and my family loved it They thought it was really "fancy". My 12 year old even complimented me on the presentation I made a few changes--I browned the chicken breasts in about 1 TBSP of butter and a little canola oil. While the chicken was cooking, I sprinkled the breasts with chicken fajita seasoning (we just love the variety of flavors in this seasoning). I could not find Camembert cheese, so I used brie. My kids wont eat avacado, so I left that out on their portion. We used the sauce on our asparagus as well. My 16 year old wants me to make it with cauliflower next time, because he thought the sauce would be perfect on it. I thought it was great Thanks for the recipe
This was so so good and the avacado just made the dish. The only downside was that I had to learn to get everything prepared ahead of time. But it was great.
This sauce was nice. In some of the reviews, some said it was too mild -- if thats the case, definitely use the camembert and NOT brie, as camembert has a stronger flavor. And, you could just add a bit more of the cheese. I had problems with the flour leaving lumps... probably my fault since Im not good at flour mixtures. As with other reviewers, I found the avocado to be the highlight of the dish. Also, I just used frozen, breaded chicken from Costco and cooked it in the oven, served the sauce on top. Worked great
I didnt have coarse grained mustard so I used spicy brown. I used 1.5 tsp instead of 1 tbl mustard. I breaded and oven baked the chicken. Be sure to use Camembert and not Brie. The Camembert is what makes it so good. I was surprised with how well the avocado went with the rest of the dish.
Excellent. I wont make it a lot only bc of the amount of calories and bfs not a mustard fan, so something Id be making only for me. Im glad I only made one piece of chicken or Id probably be eating more of it right now It is very creamy and rich and I love the mustard flavor with the chicken, cheese and avocado. I dont have green onions, so I used chives, and I subbed mozzarella for the Camembert (I know, I know, but I REALLY wanted to try it and I forgot to buy Camembert at the store yesterday). Im sure it would be even better with the correct cheese. Thank you
Had Camembert Chicken at a pub the other night and loved the sauce so much i looked it up on here. I just wanted the sauce recipe. Got the sauce recipe and made a few small changes like a small amount of red onion instead of green and more cheese.We had it on pork and steamed veggies, and was bloody beautiful. The other half refused to eat avocado but actually enjoyed the sauce even tho he doesnt like the cheese by itself...Worked well on my veggies the next night too....thanks
This is pretty easy to make. it came out pretty rich.
Great My boyfriend really like this I just add a little more milk to make the sauce a little more runny.
Not my favourite. I agree tht the sauce was kind of bland. My parents, on the other hand, LOVED it. They saved the extra sauce and used on fish later in the week. To me it was kind of boring. I probably wont make this again.
I made this for some friends who just had a baby. They loved it not to mention it reheats well
Wonderful. I, personally liked it with and without the avocado. The Camembert cheese sauce was the best part. My 16-month daughter licked the sauce off of her chicken (shes not big on meat). The sauce and chicken reheated well and tasted just as good as the first day. The rest of the family also loved this. Definitely will make again.
This was ok. I agree that the sauce was a little bland. But it made for a quick meal. Dont know if ill try it again.
This was nice except it was not very cheesy tasting. The mustard and onion were the strong flavours. Still prefer CRUMBED AVOCADO STEAK from this site.
This was OK for a different take on chicken. The cheese sauce became thick fast and did not hold up that great for leftovers, but it tasted pretty good the day I made it.
This was sooo good and not hard at all. I made it for my husband but would be great for a dinner party or date.
This recipe was great I added bacon under the avocados, the combination of flavors was fantastic.
I was disappointed with this recipe. My husband hated it, and I thought it was okay, but nothing special. It was actually pretty bland.
Delicious
This was a really great dish It was very simple to prepare. The green onions gave the sauce a very fresh taste, and the mustard gives it a tangy kick that worked well. The only thing that I did differently was that I seasoned the chicken with salt and pepper. The soon-to-be hus devoured it and advised me that it was on the make again list. :)
Easy recipe but I wasnt impressed.
Easy to prepare and quite tasty
It is an interesting combination,a little,unusual.I made a little change,and,I put guacamole,instead of slices of avocado,cause,I like it better avocado,guacamole,than slices.
Very yummy tasting sauce I made double the chicken so I thought I should double the sauce. It is a very rich sauce and I now believe less is more. Im one of the only nuts on the planet that doesnt like avocado apparently so I left that out completely.
This recipe wasnt amazing, but it was pretty good. i used camembert, but i think that brie would have been better.
We all thought this was good, but not worth the 5 stars that many gave. I would give points for originality though. I found a bit bland. It was easy however- i might make again
Extra points for simplicity. I was able to whip this together for our dinner while coming down with the flu. But the flavor didnt seem like anything special to me.
Great recipe. I subsituted Brie for the Camembert motsly because our grocery store did not have Camembert...It was VERY heavy but tasty.
Great &easy. Pound chicken breasts first so they cook evenly. Sauce thick so I added extra milk. Impresive dish and filling. I would serve with spinach salad. Brie works well and is less costly & easier to find.
The flour/butter base of this sauce made it taste too much like a basic gravy. Next time I will try using cream and reducing it down. The Camembert and mustard was a good combo, but covered up by the gravy taste. Husband said it reminded him of biscuits and gravy.
