DIRECTIONS
Spray a skillet with cooking spray, and place over medium heat. Fry chicken breasts in the skillet until cooked through, about 20 minutes.
While the chicken cooks, melt butter in a small skillet over medium heat, and stir in flour until smooth. Stir in green onion, and cook, stirring constantly, until the mixture starts to brown. Gradually mix in milk, and continue cooking and stirring until the sauce is thick and smooth. Remove from heat, and stir in the mustard and Camembert until melted and smooth.
Remove chicken to serving plates, and top with slices of avocado. Pour sauce over the chicken, and serve.

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 wasn't sure how to handle the corn starch skin. I reasoned the corn starch would become incorporated and add to the thickening. It didn't. The next time I thought I would heat the cheese separately and add it to the green onion butter mixture, don't. Next time I'll trim the cheese "skin" and have a snack while cooking. This recipe is a keeper, quick easy and kinda fancy.

What a delicious meal, and so easy to make. The mustard in the sauce added that extra flavour.

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!

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 wouldn't skip that. Nicole Jansen, this is excellent! If I wasn't doing low-carb, I wouldn't of changed a thing; esp. the Camembert. Thank you for a different,delicious, quick and great- for-company recipe!

This sauce was nice. In some of the reviews, some said it was too mild -- if that's 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 I'm 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!

Excellent. I won't make it a lot only bc of the amount of calories and bf's not a mustard fan, so something I'd be making only for me. I'm glad I only made one piece of chicken or I'd 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 don't 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). I'm sure it would be even better with the correct cheese. Thank you!

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 won't 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!

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!
