CHICKEN THIGHS WITH CREAMY MUSTARD SAUCE
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.

Steps:
- Heat your cast iron skillet over medium heat. Season the chicken with salt and pepper.
- Add the olive oil, then cook the chicken about 8 minutes per side, until golden brown and the internal temperature reaches 165º degrees. Transfer the cooked chicken to a plate.
- In the same skillet, add the onions and season with salt and pepper. Cook for about 4 minutes, or until the onions soften and turn translucent. Add the garlic cloves, and cook just 30 seconds.
- Add the white wine, dijon mustard, and stir to combine. Cook until the sauce has reduced by half, will take about 5 minutes. Turn the heat to low, then add the heavy cream and butter. Whisk to combine. Add the chicken back to the skillet to warm thru.
- Serve the chicken warm, topped with the creamy dijon mustard sauce and chopped chives. I love this on top of white rice, cauliflower rice, mashed potatoes, mashed cauliflower or roasted potatoes.

MARYLAND FRIED CHICKEN WITH CREAM GRAVY
A wonderful and easy recipe based on one from the February/March 2007 issue of Cook's Country magazine. The contributor, Jeremy Sauer, says in its intro, "While other regions of the country rely on a thick buttermilk batter and a deep-fat fryer to deliver a crusty crunch, in Maryland the chicken parts are simply seasoned, floured, and shallow-fried. This old-fashioned cooking method results in crisp, mahogany chicken that, with a gentle tug, sheets off the bone with its deliciously brittle skin still intact. But what really sets Maryland fried chicken apart is the creamy, black pepper-spiked pan gravy that's equally fit for drumstick dunking or mopping up with a biscuit." Cook time doesn't include the 30 minutes (up to 2 hours) refrigerator time. NOTE: To ensure even-cooking, breasts should be halved crosswise and leg quarters separated into thighs and drumsticks.

Tips for Making Chicken with Creamy Mustard Gravy:
- Use high-quality ingredients: Fresh, free-range chicken, flavorful mustard, and rich cream will make all the difference in the taste of your dish. - Brown the chicken well before adding the gravy: This will help to develop flavor and prevent the chicken from becoming dry. - Use a good quality mustard: The type of mustard you use will greatly affect the flavor of the gravy. For a classic flavor, use Dijon mustard. For a spicier gravy, use brown or horseradish mustard. - Don't be afraid to adjust the seasonings: If you find that the gravy is too thick, add a little more milk or cream. If you find that it is too thin, cook it for a few minutes longer or add a little flour or cornstarch. - Garnish with fresh herbs: Fresh herbs, such as parsley, chives, or tarragon, will add a pop of color and flavor to your dish.Conclusion:
