Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 13

4 boneless skinless chicken breasts (1 1/2 - 2 pounds total)
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1/8 teaspoon coarse ground black pepper
1 tablespoon oil ((vegetable, canola or grapeseed))
1 medium shallot, finely diced
1 teaspoon finely chopped fresh rosemary
1 large clove garlic, minced (about a teaspoon)
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
1/2 cup dry white wine ( (not sweet wine))
3 tablespoons grainy Dijon mustard
1 cup unsalted or reduced sodium chicken stock
1/2 cup heavy cream
Optional: fresh chives or parsley for garnish

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400ºF.
  • Trim chicken and sprinkle both sides with salt and pepper.
  • Add oil to a large oven safe skillet over medium heat. When oil is hot, place chicken in skillet. Cook for 3-4 minutes or until golden brown and it removes easily from the pan (it shouldn't stick). Flip each piece over and cook for another 3-4 minutes.
  • Place the pan in the oven and bake for 10 minutes or until the internal temperature of the chicken breasts reaches 165ºF when checked with an instant-read thermometer in the thickest portion of the meat.
  • Remove chicken from the pan and place it on a plate. Cover with foil.
  • Return pan to burner over medium heat.
  • Add shallots and cook for 3-4 minutes or until softened. Add rosemary and garlic and cook, stirring constantly, for 1 minute or until garlic is fragrant. Stir in flour and cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly.
  • Whisk or stir in wine while scraping all the brown bits off the bottom of the pan. Continue to cook for 1-2 minutes or until slightly reduced.
  • Add mustard while whisking, and then add chicken broth while whisking.
  • Cook for 5-6 minutes or until thickened slightly. Whisk in cream and cook for 5 minutes, stirring frequently, or until thickened. Return chicken to pan to coat in sauce (or drizzle sauce over chicken) and serve immediately, garnished with fresh parsley or chives if desired.

Provided by Kardea Brown

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h10m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 19

1 cup all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon House Seasoning, recipe follows
4 bone-in chicken thighs
1 cup canola oil
1 medium onion, diced
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
4 cloves garlic, minced (about 1 tablespoon)
1 teaspoon dried thyme
1/2 teaspoon dried rosemary
1/3 cup low-sodium chicken stock or broth
1 1/2 cups heavy cream
2 to 8 tablespoons Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon ground mustard
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
1/4 cup garlic powder
1/4 cup onion powder
1/4 cup sweet paprika
1/4 cup kosher salt
1/4 cup freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • For the chicken: Whisk together the flour and House Seasoning in a large bowl. Add the chicken and toss to coat.
  • Add the oil to a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Remove the chicken from the flour mixture, shaking to remove any excess, and add to the hot oil. Fry until the chicken is golden brown on all sides, about 5 minutes per side. Remove to a plate and set aside.
  • For the sauce: Add the diced onions to the hot oil in the skillet and cook until the onions are slightly softened and translucent, 2 to 3 minutes.

Whisk in the cream, Dijon (start with 2 tablespoons for a milder sauce and add up to 8 total tablespoons for a more pungent, mustardy sauce) and ground mustard and bring to a simmer again until thickened, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the chicken, turning to coat with the gravy. Cover and cook, turning the chicken occasionally, 25 to 30 minutes. Sprinkle with the parsley before serving.
  • Stir together the garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt and pepper in a medium bowl. Keep in an airtight container for up to 6 months.

Categories     main-dish

Time 45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

8 medium bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs (2 1/4 pounds)
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Good olive oil
2 cups halved and thinly sliced yellow onions (2 onions)
2 tablespoons dry white wine
8 ounces creme fraiche
1 tablespoon good Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon whole-grain mustard
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley

Steps:

  • Place the chicken thighs on a cutting board, skin side up, and pat them dry with paper towels. Sprinkle the chicken with 1 1/2 teaspoons salt and 3/4 teaspoon pepper. Turn them over and sprinkle them with one more teaspoon of salt.
  • Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large (11 to 12-inch) cast-iron skillet over medium heat. When the oil is hot, place the chicken in the pan in one layer, skin side down. Cook over medium heat for 15 minutes without moving, until the skin is golden brown. (If the skin gets too dark, turn the heat to medium low.) Turn the chicken pieces with tongs, add the onions to the pan, including under the chicken, and cook over medium heat for 15 minutes, stirring the onions occasionally, until the thighs are cooked to 155 to 160 degrees and the onions are browned. Transfer the chicken (not the onions) to a plate and allow to rest uncovered while you make the sauce. If the onions aren't browned, cook them for another minute.
  • Add the wine, creme fraiche, Dijon mustard, whole-grain mustard, and 1 teaspoon salt to the skillet and stir over medium heat for one minute. Return the chicken, skin side up, and the juices to the skillet, sprinkle with parsley, and serve hot.

CHICKEN IN MUSTARD SAUCE



Chicken in Mustard Sauce image

This healthy yet elegant weeknight chicken dish came to The Times in 1988, courtesy of Jacques Pépin. It's simple but loaded with flavor, and you can throw it together in about a half hour. Just sauté the chicken until golden, then make a quick sauce from onions, water and mustard and reduce until thick. Serve with rice to soak up the sauce, and a crisp green salad. If white meat is not your thing, it would be equally delicious made with boneless chicken thighs (just be sure to add a few minutes of cooking time).

Categories     dinner, one pot, main course

Time 35m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

8 5-ounce chicken breasts, skinless and boneless
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 cup onion, finely chopped
2 tablespoons flour
2 cups water
1 1/2 teaspoons dry mustard
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard

Steps:

  • Sprinkle the meat with the salt and pepper.
  • Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. When it is hot, brown the chicken for one-and-a-half minutes on each side.
  • Mix in the onion and continue cooking for one minute.
  • Sprinkle the flour on the chicken pieces, turning them so that all the pieces are coated. Cook one minute to lightly brown the flour.
  • Add the water and stir to dissolve the flour until the mixture comes to a boil. Lower the heat, cover the skillet and boil gently for five minutes.
  • Remove the meat to a serving platter and keep warm.
  • Cook the sauce to reduce it to about one-and-a-half cups. Mix the dry mustard with the Dijon mustard and stir until smooth. Stir the mustard mixture into the sauce and heat, but do not allow the sauce to boil after the mustard has been added.
  • Place the chicken pieces in the sauce and warm over low heat for 10 to 15 minutes to develop the flavor.
  • Serve the chicken with the sauce.

Tips:

  • Choose the right mustard: Use a grainy Dijon mustard for a bold, tangy flavor. A smooth Dijon mustard will give you a milder flavor. Whole-grain mustard seeds can also be added to the sauce for a bit of extra texture.
  • Don't overcook the chicken: Chicken breasts are best when cooked to an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit. Overcooking will make them dry and tough.
  • Make sure the sauce is hot: The sauce should be hot when you pour it over the chicken. This will help to keep the chicken moist and juicy.
  • Serve immediately: Chicken with mustard sauce is best served immediately. The sauce will start to thicken as it cools, so it's best to enjoy it while it's still hot.

Conclusion:

Chicken with mustard sauce is a classic French dish that is easy to make and always a crowd-pleaser. The creamy, tangy sauce is the perfect complement to the tender chicken. This dish can be served with a variety of sides, such as mashed potatoes, rice, or roasted vegetables. It's also a great option for a quick and easy weeknight meal.
