Description
This Dijon Mustard Chicken is a flavorful and easy-to-make dish that features tender, juicy chicken breasts smothered in a creamy mustard sauce.
Ingredients
Scale
- 6 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 – 2 T olive oil (will depend on your pan)
- 2 tsp. poultry seasoning
- 1/2 cup mayo
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 2 T Dijon mustard
- 1 tsp. dry mustard
- 1 cups chicken broth (see notes)
- chopped parsley for garnish (optional)
- salt and fresh-ground black pepper to taste
Instructions
- Trim all visible fat and undesirable parts from chicken breasts, then make very small slits crosswise down the length of each breast.
- Season chicken with Poultry Seasoning on both sides.
- Heat olive oil in a large frying pan big enough to hold the chicken in a single layer, add chicken and cook about 4 minutes on the first side until lightly browned.
- Turn chicken over and cook 2-3 minutes on the second side until chicken feels almost firm to the touch.
- While chicken cooks, put all sauce ingredients in a bowl or large measuring cup and whisk to combine.
- When chicken is lightly browned, lower heat and pour sauce over.
- Simmer for 20 minutes (or slightly longer), keeping heat at a very low simmer.
- When the sauce is mostly reduced, remove chicken from pan and whisk the sauce a few times to ensure it’s smooth.
- Season to taste with a little salt and fresh-ground black pepper.
- Serve the Dijon Mustard Chicken hot, with a little sauce spooned over each piece of chicken, garnishing with fresh parsley if desired.
Notes
- Adjust the amount of chicken broth based on desired sauce thickness.
- Ensure not to overcook the chicken to keep it juicy.
