Best 6 Pan Seared Chicken With Mustard Sauce Recipes

facebook share image   twitter share image   pinterest share image   E-Mail share image

Pan-seared chicken with mustard sauce is a classic French dish that is both elegant and easy to make. The chicken is first seared in a hot skillet until golden brown, then finished in the oven until cooked through. The mustard sauce is made with a combination of Dijon mustard, white wine, and cream, and it adds a rich, tangy flavor to the chicken. This dish is perfect for a weeknight meal or a special occasion.

The article also includes recipes for two variations of the dish:

* **Pan-seared chicken with honey mustard sauce:** This variation uses a honey mustard sauce instead of the classic mustard sauce. The honey mustard sauce is sweeter and tangier than the classic mustard sauce, and it pairs well with the chicken.
* **Pan-seared chicken with lemon mustard sauce:** This variation uses a lemon mustard sauce instead of the classic mustard sauce. The lemon mustard sauce is brighter and more acidic than the classic mustard sauce, and it adds a refreshing flavor to the chicken.

All three of these recipes are easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. Whether you prefer classic, sweet, or tangy flavors, you're sure to find a pan-seared chicken with mustard sauce recipe that you'll love.

CHICKEN THIGHS WITH CREAMY MUSTARD SAUCE

Provided by Ina Garten

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.

Time 28m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

4 boneless chicken breasts (halved, with skin, about 2 lbs)
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1/2 cup white wine
1 1/2 cups chicken broth
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons water
2 tablespoons whole grain mustard
1 tablespoon unsalted butter (optional)
salt
pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Heat a large skillet over medium high heat. Pat chicken dry . Season with salt and pepper. Add the oil to the hot pan and swirl to evenly coat. Lay chicken in pan skin side down; cook without moving the pieces until the skin crisps and browns, about 5 minutes. Flip chicken and cook about another 3 minutes. Transfer to a baking dish, skin side up, and bake until cooked through, about 10 minutes.
  • Pour the wine into the hot skillet. Use wooden spoon to scrape up the brown bits in the bottom of the pan. Boil until almost all the wine evaporates and it gets a little syrupy, about 3 minutes. Add the broth and bring to a boil.
  • Mix the flour and water together to make thin paste. Whisk the paste and mustard into the broth and boil until the sauce thickens, 1 to 2 minutes more. Remove the pan from the heat. Swirl in the butter, if using, to give the sauce a little richness. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Pour the sauce on top and serve.

Tips:

  • For the best results, use a heavy-bottomed skillet or griddle. This will help to evenly distribute the heat and prevent the chicken from sticking.
  • Make sure the skillet is hot before adding the chicken. This will help to sear the chicken and prevent it from sticking.
  • Don't overcrowd the skillet. If the skillet is too crowded, the chicken will not cook evenly.
  • Cook the chicken over medium heat. This will help to ensure that the chicken is cooked through without burning.
  • Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature of the chicken. The chicken is cooked through when it reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Let the chicken rest for a few minutes before serving. This will help to keep the juices in the chicken.

Conclusion:

Pan-seared chicken with mustard sauce is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. The chicken is tender and juicy, and the mustard sauce is creamy and flavorful. This dish is sure to please everyone at your table.
