Ingredients

  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 6 chicken thighs skin removed
  • Salt and pepper
  • 2 shallots thinly sliced
  • 3 garlic cloves minced
  • ⅓ cup chicken broth
  • 2 tablespoons dry white wine
  • 2 teaspoons grainy mustard
  • 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard the sauce, not the seasoning!
  • 3 tablespoons honey
  • 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
  • 3 tablespoons heavy cream
  • Fresh parsley for garnish

Instructions

  • Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
  • Season chicken thighs on both sides with salt and pepper.
  • Add chicken thighs, and cook for about 3 minutes on each side, until browned. It doesn't need to be cooked through yet, just sear it. Remove chicken to a plate and set aside.
  • To the same skillet, add shallots and garlic. Saute until tender, about 3 to 4 minutes.
  • Add remaining ingredients to the skillet. Stir to combine, scraping any brown bits off the bottom of the pan.
  • Raise heat and bring to a boil.
  • Return chicken to the skillet. Reduce heat and simmer for about 15 minutes, until chicken is cooked through and sauce has thickened slightly.
  • Remove chicken to a serving dish. Stir remaining cream into the sauce and whisk until combined.
  • Pour sauce over chicken and garnish with fresh parsley.

Notes

  • Mustard - can use all of one type of mustard or even yellow mustard

    Just made this and it was super easy and super yummy! The only change that I made was to use a little thinly sliced onion instead of the shallots since that's what I had on hand. The whole family declared it a winner!
