One-Pan Creamy Mustard Chicken image

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.

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

8 boneless, skinless chicken thighs, trimmed (about 2 pounds)
1/4 cup plus 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard, such as Grey PouponĀ® Dijon Mustard
1 teaspoon sweet paprika
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/2 cup dry white wine
1 1/2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1/2 cup chicken broth
1/4 cup heavy cream
2 tablespoons chopped fresh thyme, plus more for garnishing
Sliced French bread, for serving

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.
