Ingredients
Scale
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 cup chicken broth
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper.
- Heat olive oil and butter in a skillet over medium heat. Cook the chicken breasts until golden brown on both sides, about 5-7 minutes per side. Remove and set aside.
- In the same skillet, add minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant. Pour in chicken broth and stir in Dijon mustard, scraping up any browned bits from the pan. Add heavy cream and dried thyme. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for about 5 minutes, until the sauce thickens slightly.
- Return the chicken to the skillet, coating it well with the sauce. Cook for an additional 3 minutes, or until the chicken is heated through and the sauce is bubbling.
- Sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley before serving.
