Categories     main-dish

Time 45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

Four 6-ounce boneless, skinless chicken breasts
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
4 tablespoons salted butter
1 tablespoon olive oil
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 cup dry white wine
2 heaping tablespoons grainy mustard
1 cup low-sodium chicken broth
1/2 cup chopped mixed fresh herbs, such as dill, parsley or chives, plus more for garnish
Garlic Spinach, recipe follows
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 garlic cloves, minced
Two 10-ounce packages baby spinach leaves
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Juice of 1/2 lemon

Steps:

  • Slice the chicken breasts in half horizontally so that you have 8 thinner chicken breast cutlets. Sprinkle both sides of each cutlet with salt and pepper.
  • Heat 2 tablespoons butter and 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until hot. Add half the chicken cutlets and cook until golden brown and completely cooked through, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Remove the cutlets to a plate and set aside. Cook the remaining cutlets in the same manner.
  • Reduce the heat to medium. Add the garlic to the skillet and stir until golden brown, about 1 minute. Carefully pour in the wine and allow it to simmer and reduce by half, 1 to 2 more minutes.
  • Stir in the mustard, followed by the chicken broth. Add the remaining 2 tablespoons butter and stir until the sauce begins to thicken, 1 to 2 minutes. Season the pan sauce with salt and pepper. Add the herbs and stir.
  • Return the chicken cutlets to the skillet, turning them in the sauce to coat and to rewarm them. Serve on top of the Garlic Spinach. Spoon more sauce from the skillet over them and garnish each plate with more fresh herbs.
  • Heat the olive oil in a large, high-sided skillet over medium-high heat until hot, then add the garlic and give it a quick stir. Add the spinach and let it cook down, turning often to bring the wilted pieces to the top, until softened, a minute or two.
  • Cook until completely wilted, a minute or two more, then season the spinach with salt and pepper, as well as the lemon juice. Toss to evenly combine everything.

SKILLET MUSTARD CHICKEN WITH SPINACH AND CARROTS



Skillet Mustard Chicken With Spinach and Carrots image

In this one-skillet meal, mustard-coated chicken thighs are nestled on a bed of butter-sautéed scallions and carrots before the whole pan is popped into the oven to roast until golden. Just before serving, baby spinach and loads of fresh dill are tossed with the pan drippings, wilting slightly and absorbing all of the rich flavors. Serve this over rice or polenta, or with bread for mopping up the drippings. That's all you'll need to make it a satisfying meal.

Time 1h

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 garlic cloves, finely grated or mashed to a paste
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt, plus more as needed
1 1/2 teaspoons ground coriander
3/4 teaspoon black pepper
2 1/2 pounds bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs (6 or 7 thighs)
1 bunch scallions, trimmed
3 medium carrots (about 6 ounces)
4 tablespoons/60 grams unsalted butter (1/2 stick)
1 sprig fresh oregano, marjoram or rosemary
2/3 cup chicken stock
1/2 cup good dry white wine
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
5 ounces baby spinach
1 cup chopped fresh dill
Fresh lemon juice, for serving

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 425 degrees and position a rack in the center. In a small bowl, stir together garlic, salt, coriander and pepper. Rub all over chicken, then set aside to rest at room temperature while you prepare vegetables.
  • Thinly slice the scallions. Peel carrots if you like, and cut into 1/2-inch pieces (about 1 cup).
  • Heat a 12-inch ovenproof skillet over high. When hot, add 2 tablespoons butter. When the butter is melted, place chicken skin-side down in skillet. Cook, without moving, until skin has browned, about 4 minutes. Transfer chicken, skin-side up, to a plate.
  • Reduce heat to medium-high and stir in remaining 2 tablespoons butter, along with scallions, oregano sprig and a pinch of salt. Cook until softened and lightly browned, 3 minutes, then stir in stock, wine and carrots. Bring liquid to a simmer. Cover pan and cook, 5 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, brush the chicken all over with the mustard. Nestle chicken into skillet skin-side up.
  • Transfer skillet to oven and cook, uncovered, until chicken is cooked through, about 20 minutes. Remove pan from oven and transfer chicken to a plate.
  • If pan juices are watery, bring to a simmer over high heat and cook until thickened. Pluck out the oregano sprig and discard. Stir spinach, dill and a pinch of salt into pan, tossing to coat with pan juices and wilt greens. Spoon spinach, carrots, and pan juices over the chicken, drizzle with lemon juice, and serve.

Tips:

  • Mise en Place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all your ingredients prepped and measured. This will help you stay organized and prevent any scrambling during the cooking process.
  • Use a Quality Non-Stick Skillet: A good non-stick skillet will help prevent the chicken from sticking and make it easier to clean up afterward.
  • Don't Overcrowd the Skillet: When searing the chicken, make sure you don't overcrowd the skillet. This will prevent the chicken from cooking evenly.
  • Sear the Chicken Over Medium-High Heat: Searing the chicken over medium-high heat will help create a nice, crispy crust.
  • Reduce the Heat to Medium-Low: Once the chicken is seared, reduce the heat to medium-low and continue cooking until the chicken is cooked through.
  • Use a Meat Thermometer: The best way to ensure that the chicken is cooked through is to use a meat thermometer. The chicken is done when it reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
  • Let the Chicken Rest: Before serving, let the chicken rest for a few minutes. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the chicken, making it more tender and flavorful.

Conclusion:

Skillet Herbed Chicken with Mustard is a delicious and easy-to-make recipe that is perfect for a weeknight dinner. The chicken is tender and flavorful, and the mustard sauce is creamy and tangy. This dish is sure to please everyone at the table. If you are looking for a new way to cook chicken, give this recipe a try.
