Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 4 boneless skinless chicken thighs
  • 1 tsp dried thyme
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 8 oz cremini mushrooms
  • 1 small yellow onion
  • 3 garlic cloves
  • 1/2 cup low-sodium chicken broth
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 1 tsp Dijon mustard
  • Salt and black pepper
  • 2 tbsp chopped fresh parsley (optional)

Method
 

  1. Season chicken with thyme, salt, and pepper. Sear in olive oil over medium-high heat until golden and cooked through, 5 to 6 minutes per side. Remove to a plate.
  2. Reduce heat to medium, melt butter, and sauté mushrooms and onion with a pinch of salt until browned, about 5 to 6 minutes. Add garlic and cook 30 seconds.
  3. Pour in chicken broth, scraping up browned bits, then stir in cream and Dijon. Simmer gently until sauce thickens, 3 to 4 minutes.
  4. Return chicken to the skillet, spoon sauce over the top, and warm through 1 to 2 minutes. Finish with parsley and serve.

Notes

Pat the chicken very dry before seasoning to get that deep sear. If the sauce thickens too much while resting, stir in a splash of warm broth to loosen it back up. The mustard is just background, so the sauce will not taste mustardy.
