Dijon stir-fry

Dijon is a fantastic way to pack in loads of flavor to a dish with very few calories! It's great on any kind of poultry, so today I put it in with my chicken and veggies along with coconut oil, apple cider vinegar, and fresh lemon juice, then served it with couscous.

In order for the coconut oil to liquify, as it is solid below 76 degrees Farnheit, I just plopped a heaping tablespoon of it into the skillet as it warmed up over medium-high heat. I poured in my veggies and then placed chicken tenderloins in the pan next to them. I used salt, pepper, crushed red peppers, minced garlic, and paprika as seasoning. After about two minutes, I smothered the chicken with dijon mustard and poured a little apple cider vinegar and lemon juice over everything. Once that was started, I boiled water and seasoning for couscous and prepared it as directed on the box. (I use Near East brand, pictured below.)
Within 15 minutes from start to finish, I served it all up on a pink plate to enjoy!
