  • 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.

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 teaspoon whole-grain mustard
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley

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).

Provided by Jacques Pépin

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.

1 medium onion, diced
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
4 cloves garlic, minced (about 1 tablespoon)
1 teaspoon dried thyme

CHICKEN IN ONION AND MUSTARD SAUCE



Chicken in Onion and Mustard Sauce image

Surprisingly mild and easy to make, this dish takes to substitutions well depending on what you have in the house. Despite the name, even my young children enjoy this chicken! It's quick, easy, and something different for dinner. Apple juice may be substituted for the applesauce and wine. Grainy, spicier mustards will create a spicier sauce; mild or sweet mustards will create a milder sauce.

SAUTEED CHICKEN IN MUSTARD-CREAM SAUCE



Sauteed Chicken in Mustard-Cream Sauce image

1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
2 tablespoons olive oil
1/4 cup dry white wine, or chicken broth
1/2 cup heavy cream
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon dried tarragon (or 1 tablespoon chopped fresh)

Nutrition Facts : Calories 359 g, Fat 20 g, Protein 40 g

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients. The better the ingredients, the better the dish will taste. Use free-range chicken, organic vegetables, and a good quality mustard.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan. When searing the chicken, make sure to give it enough space so that it can brown evenly. If you overcrowd the pan, the chicken will steam instead of sear.
  • Cook the chicken to the proper temperature. Use a meat thermometer to ensure that the chicken is cooked to an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Make sure the sauce is thick enough. The sauce should be thick enough to coat the chicken and vegetables. If it's too thin, add a little bit of cornstarch or flour to thicken it up.
  • Serve the dish immediately. Chicken with mustard sauce is best served hot. If you're making it ahead of time, reheat it gently before serving.

Conclusion:

Chicken with mustard sauce is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. It's a great way to use up leftover chicken, and it's also a good option for a weeknight meal. With its creamy, tangy sauce and tender chicken, this dish is sure to please everyone at the table.
