CAROLINA SMOTHERED CHICKEN WITH CREAMY MUSTARD SAUCE
Steps:
- For the chicken: Whisk together the flour and House Seasoning in a large bowl. Add the chicken and toss to coat.
- Add the oil to a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Remove the chicken from the flour mixture, shaking to remove any excess, and add to the hot oil. Fry until the chicken is golden brown on all sides, about 5 minutes per side. Remove to a plate and set aside.
- For the sauce: Add the diced onions to the hot oil in the skillet and cook until the onions are slightly softened and translucent, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the butter, garlic, thyme and rosemary and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute more. Whisk in the stock, scraping up any bits from the bottom of the pan. Simmer until thickened, 3 to 4 minutes. Whisk in the cream, Dijon (start with 2 tablespoons for a milder sauce and add up to 8 total tablespoons for a more pungent, mustardy sauce) and ground mustard and bring to a simmer again until thickened, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the chicken, turning to coat with the gravy. Cover and cook, turning the chicken occasionally, 25 to 30 minutes. Sprinkle with the parsley before serving.
- Stir together the garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt and pepper in a medium bowl. Keep in an airtight container for up to 6 months.
ONE-PAN CREAMY MUSTARD CHICKEN
Sponsored by Grey PouponĀ®. Take the stress (and mess) out of mealtime with a 30-minute recipe starring tender chicken thighs simmered in a creamy mustard sauce. I love serving this one-pan dish with plenty of French bread for dipping in the extra sauce, but it's equally delicious alongside buttered egg noodles.

Steps:
- Pat the chicken thighs dry with paper towels. Combine the 1/4 cup mustard with the paprika, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a small bowl.
- Brush the mustard mixture on the chicken thighs with a pastry brush, coating them on both sides.
- Melt 2 tablespoons of the butter in a large skillet or cast-iron skillet over medium heat. Add the chicken thighs in a single layer. Cook until browned on one side, then flip once and brown the other side, about 10 minutes total. (If necessary, brown the chicken thighs in batches to avoid overcrowding the skillet.) Transfer the chicken to a plate, leaving the drippings in the skillet.
- Increase the heat to medium-high. Carefully add the wine to the skillet and simmer, scraping up any browned bits with a wooden spatula, until the liquid has reduced by half, about 2 minutes.
- Reduce the heat to medium-low and add the remaining 1 tablespoon butter. When it melts, whisk in the flour and cook, whisking constantly, for 1 minute. (The mixture will be very thick.)
- Whisk in the chicken broth, heavy cream, the 2 tablespoons thyme and the remaining 1 tablespoon mustard.
- Return the chicken thighs and any accumulated juices to the skillet, arranging them in a single layer, and cook until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the chicken reaches 165 degrees F, 5 to 7 minutes.
- Transfer the chicken to serving plates, spoon the sauce on top and sprinkle with thyme. Serve with French bread, for dipping.
