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.

Steps:
- In small bowl, mix olive oil, honey, mustard*, orange marmalade, paprika, pepper flakes, garlic and stock. If you want, use a hand blender to get all the ingredients combined well. Set aside.
- Heat olive oil in large skillet over medium-high heat. If breasts are big, cut in half horizontally. Season flour with salt and pepper, and dredge chicken in flour. Fry in pan about 2-3 minutes each side.
- Pour sauce around chicken and cover. Lower heat to medium and simmer for about 10-12 minutes.
- Remove chicken to plate and pour sauce over top and serve.
- *NOTE* I used a mustard called Bone Suckin' Sweet Hot Mustard which I bought at a local kitchenware store (Lakeland Ltd.) here in the UK. It contains ingredients such as molasses, brown sugar and jalapeno peppers. You can use a similar type of mustard if you can find one or just use dijon. However, I think that a bold flavored mustard like the one I used is what really brought this dish together. If you try this recipe and review it, please let others know what type of mustard you used.

CHICKEN BREASTS WITH A HERB, MUSTARD, MUSHROOM, CREAM SAUCE
Steps:
- Melt butter and oil in heavy frying pan over medium high heat. Season chicken both sides. Pan-fry, skin side up, for 5 minutes. Then pan-fry skin side down until skin is brown and almost crispy, about 10 minutes. Transfer chicken to plate. Add shallots and mushrooms to pan, reduce heat to medium-low. Season and sauté for about 10 minutes; shallots will soften and mushrooms will release water. Add wine; simmer until all liquid is nearly evaporated, scraping up browned bits. Add stock and herbs, stir. Return chicken to pan, skin side up, so it stays crispy. Simmer until chicken is cooked, about 15 minutes. Transfer chicken to serving plate. Stir cream and mustard into the pan. Increase heat to high, cook until sauce thickens, about 2 minutes. Check seasoning. Serve with buttery mashed potatoes, a dark green vegetable, and the sauce over the chicken.
Tips:
- To ensure that your chicken breasts are evenly cooked, pound them to an even thickness before cooking. This will help them cook evenly throughout.
- If you don't have Dijon mustard, you can substitute yellow mustard. However, Dijon mustard has a more complex flavor that will give your chicken breasts a more gourmet taste.
- If you like your chicken breasts with a crispy coating, be sure to dredge them in flour before searing them in the pan. This will help the coating to adhere to the chicken and create a crispy crust.
- Don't overcrowd the pan when searing the chicken breasts. If you do, they will not cook evenly and they will be more likely to stick to the pan.
- Be sure to let the chicken breasts rest for a few minutes before serving. This will help the juices to redistribute throughout the chicken, making them more tender and flavorful.
Conclusion:
Mustard chicken breasts are a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for a weeknight dinner. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a dish that is both flavorful and satisfying. Whether you serve them with mashed potatoes, rice, or vegetables, mustard chicken breasts are sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
