Time 30m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 11

⅓ cup all-purpose flour
salt and pepper to taste
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 tablespoon butter
4 (5 ounce) skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
¼ cup finely chopped red onion
½ cup low-sodium chicken broth
½ cup dry white wine
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons sour cream
1 tablespoon chopped fresh tarragon

Steps:

  • Place the flour in a shallow dish and season lightly with salt and pepper. Heat the olive oil and butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper and dredge each in the flour.
  • Cook the chicken in the hot oil and butter until golden, about 3 minutes. Flip chicken and brown on the other side, 3 additional minutes. Remove chicken from skillet and tent with foil.
  • Reduce heat to medium. Stir the red onion into the oil and butter that remains in the skillet. Cook until softened, 2 to 3 minutes. Pour the chicken broth into the pan, and simmer while scraping the browned bits of food off of the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon. Pour in the wine and bring back to a simmer. Cook the sauce until reduced by half, about 3 minutes. Return chicken to the pan along with any juices that have accumulated. Simmer chicken in the sauce until it is cooked through and no longer pink in the center, 3 to 4 minutes. Transfer chicken to a warmed platter.
  • Whisk the mustard and sour cream into the sauce; stir in the tarragon. Spoon sauce over chicken to serve.

MUSTARD-BRAISED CHICKEN WITH TARRAGON RECIPE



MUSTARD-BRAISED CHICKEN WITH TARRAGON Recipe image

Provided by á-3145

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/4 cup whole-grain mustard
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
Kosher salt and ground black pepper
3 pounds bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs, trimmed and patted dry
1 tablespoon grapeseed or other neutral oil
2 medium shallots, halved and thinly sliced
2 medium garlic cloves, minced
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
2 cups low-sodium chicken broth
1/4 cup plain whole-milk yogurt
2 tablespoons chopped fresh tarragon

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 450°F with a rack in the middle position. In a small bowl, stir together both mustards and ½ teaspoon each salt and pepper; set aside. Season the chicken on both sides with salt and pepper. In a 12-inch skillet over medium-high, heat the oil until shimmering. Add the chicken skin side down and cook without disturbing until golden brown, 5 to 8 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat. Using tongs, transfer the chicken skin up to a plate, then spread ¼ cup of the mustard mixture evenly onto the skin sides. Pour off and discard all but 2 tablespoons of fat in the skillet and return the pan to medium. Add the shallots, garlic and flour, then cook, stirring often, until the mixture is light golden brown, about 3 minutes. Add the broth and bring to a boil over medium-high, scraping up any browned bits. Return the chicken pieces skin side up to the skillet and pour in the accumulated juices. Place the pan in the oven and cook until the thickest part of the thigh reaches about 175°F, 15 to 20 minutes. Transfer the chicken skin side up to a platter. Set the skillet over medium-high (the handle will be hot) and bring the cooking liquid to a simmer. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the mixture is slightly thickened and a spoon drawn through the sauce leaves a trail, 5 to 8 minutes. Off heat, stir in the remaining mustard mixture, the yogurt and tarragon. Taste and season with salt and pepper, then spoon the sauce around the chicken.

Tips:

  • For the best flavor, use fresh tarragon leaves. If you don't have fresh tarragon, you can use 1 teaspoon of dried tarragon.
  • If you don't have Dijon mustard, you can use yellow mustard.
  • This recipe is for boneless, skinless chicken breasts. If you are using bone-in, skin-on chicken breasts, you will need to increase the cooking time.
  • Serve the chicken with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or rice.

Conclusion:

This mustard tarragon chicken recipe is a delicious and easy way to cook chicken. The mustard and tarragon give the chicken a flavorful crust, while the chicken stays moist and juicy on the inside. This recipe is perfect for a weeknight meal or a special occasion.
