Categories     Chicken     Herb     Mustard     Poultry     Sauté     Wheat/Gluten-Free     Dinner     Chive     Sugar Conscious     Peanut Free     Tree Nut Free     Soy Free

Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 tablespoons unsalted butter
Four 8-ounce skinless, boneless chicken breasts, slightly pounded, and flattened
Fine sea salt and freshly ground pepper
3 tablespoons chopped shallots
1/2 cup brandy, apple brandy, pear brandy, or Kentucky bourbon
1/2 cup dry white wine
3 tablespoons Dijon mustard
1 1/2 cups homemade chicken stock, or store-bought low sodium chicken broth
1/2 cup heavy cream
3 tablespoons minced fresh chives

Steps:

  • 1. Heat the butter in a wide, heavy-bottomed sauté pan until it begins to melt and foam. Season the chicken with salt and pepper. Add the breasts to the pan and brown them on one side, 6 to 8 minutes. Turn them over and cook them until well browned on the other side, about 6 more minutes. The chicken is done when it is firm to the touch and the juices run clear. Transfer the chicken to a plate and cover with foil to keep warm.
  • 2. Add the shallots to the same pan and sauté until softened but not browned, about 2 minutes. Lower the heat, move the pan away from the flame, lean away from it, and carefully pour in the brandy, taking care not to let it flame. (If it does flame, cover with a pot lid until the brandy cooks out.) Continuing to be mindful of potential flare-ups, return the pan to the stove and let the brandy evaporate over low heat.
  • 3. Add the wine to the pan, raise the heat to high, and bring it to a boil. Whisk in the mustard and let reduce for 1 minute. Pour in the broth and cook for 2 to 3 minutes more.
  • 4. Stir in the cream and bring just to a boil. Stir in the chives. Return the chicken breasts to the pan and simmer gently until the stock has reduced and thickened slightly, 4 to 5 minutes.
  • 5. To serve, put 1 chicken breast in the center of each of 4 plates and spoon some sauce over the top.
  • Your Nightly Specials Instead of chicken, use small beefsteaks or pork loin chops. Cooking time will vary based on thickness and desired doneness, but will be about 2 minutes more per side than the chicken.
  • For a spicier sauce, add 1 teaspoon hot, dry, English mustard to the sauce along with the Dijon.

Chicken Paillard with Chive and Mustard Sauce Diane image

Provided by Food Network

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

4 6 ounce chicken breasts, butterflied and pounded with a meat tenderizer to 1/4inch thick
Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
3 tablespoons chopped shallots
2 ounces fine brandy
1/4 cup white wine
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
3/4 cup veal stock
1/2 cup heavy cream
3 tablespoons chopped fresh chives

Steps:

  • Since each pounded, flattened chicken should have a large circumference, it will be necessary to cook the four breasts one at a time, setting each aside on a warm platter as you finish those that remain or use two pans to cook two simultaneously.
  • Season the chicken with salt and pepper. Heat a large, heavy skillet over medium heat. Add 1/2 tablespoon of butter to the hot pan and heat the butter until it begins to foam. Add the first
  • breast and sear, cooking for 3 to 4 minutes on a side before turning it over and allowing another 4 minutes on the second side. Remove the chicken from the pan and place on a warm platter. Repeat for the remaining chicken breasts, adding butter to the pan and sauteeing both sides. After all the chicken has been cooked and removed from the pan, add the shallots and cook two minutes until translucent. Lower the heat, move the pan away, and cautiously add the brandy. Being careful not to flame the brandy, return the pan to the stove, and over low heat, allow it to cook off. Add the white wine to the pan, raise the heat, and bring quickly to the boil. Stir in the mustard. Allow this to cook for 1 minute before adding the veal stock. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes more. Add the cream. Bring just to the boil. Remove from the heat and stir in the chives.
  • Place the ovenproof platter of chicken breasts in a preheated 350 degree oven for 1 to 2 minutes to reheat them very quickly before placing them on individual dishes and topping with some of the Diane Sauce. Serve with garlic mashed potatoes.

  • Use a heavy-bottomed skillet: A heavy-bottomed skillet will help to prevent the chicken from sticking and will also help to evenly distribute the heat.

  • Use a flavorful sauce: The chive sauce is a great way to add flavor to the chicken. You can also use other sauces, such as a lemon-butter sauce or a white wine sauce.
  • Serve with your favorite sides: Chicken with chive sauce can be served with a variety of sides, such as mashed potatoes, rice, or roasted vegetables.
