Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Ingredients     Meat & Poultry     Chicken     Chicken Breast Recipes

Time 25m

Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 boneless skinless chicken breasts (6 ounces each), pounded to 1/2-inch thick
Salt and pepper
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 medium shallots, minced (1/4 cup)
1/4 cup dry white wine, such as Pinot Grigio
1/2 cup chicken broth
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
3 tablespoons heavy cream
2 tablespoons parsely, finely chopped

Steps:

  • Season chicken with salt and pepper. In a large skillet, heat oil over medium-high. Add chicken and cook until cooked through, 3-4 minutes per side (work in batches if necessary). Transfer chicken to a plate and keep warm.
  • Reduce heat to medium. Add shallot and cook, stirring, 1 minute. Add wine and broth and cook until reduced by half, about 2 minutes. Whisk in mustard and cream and simmer until slightly thickened, about 5 minutes. Stir in parsley and season with salt and pepper.
  • Spoon sauce over chicken and serve with salad of parsley, sliced shallots, and lemon zest.

Tips:

  • To ensure succulent chicken, marinate it in a mixture of olive oil, Dijon mustard, herbs, garlic, and lemon juice for at least 30 minutes before cooking.
  • Sear the chicken in a hot skillet over medium-high heat to create a golden-brown crust, locking in the juices and flavor.
  • Transfer the chicken to a baking dish and finish cooking in a preheated oven at 400°F (200°C) until it reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
  • For a richer and more flavorful sauce, use a combination of heavy cream, Dijon mustard, white wine, and fresh herbs.
  • To prevent the sauce from curdling, whisk in the cream and mustard slowly over low heat, stirring constantly.
  • Serve the chicken with roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or a side salad for a complete and satisfying meal.
