Directions
- Place chicken between 2 pcs of wax paper or possibly foil. Flatten with a meat mallet or possibly the bottom of a heavy skillet to about 1/2 inch thick. In a small bowl, mix flour, crushed red pepper, and salt and pepper to taste. Heat oil in a nonstick skillet on medium-high heat. Dip chicken breasts in the flour mix, coating all sides. Saute/fry chicken 3 min on each side.
- While chicken cooks, mix honey and mustard together. Remove chicken to two dinner plates and spread mustard sauce on top.

- Warm and sweet: Sauce sauteed chicken with honey, red pepper
- Warm pepper and honey make this a sweet and spicy chicken dinner. To speed cooking time, I flatten the chicken to about 1/2 inch thick.
- Sweet potatoes cooked in a microwave oven with fresh red peppers makes an unusual and surprisingly quick side dish. The potatoes cook in a bowl covered with plastic wrap. Be careful when removing the cover; the steam which escapes is very warm.

- Fred Tasker's wine suggestion: Sweet and spicy chicken would go nicely with a sweet and spicy gewurztraminer.
