Creamy Dijon Rosemary Chicken
Description
This dish begins by dredging thinly sliced chicken breasts in flour and searing them in a mixture of olive oil and butter for a golden exterior. Rosemary needles are then cooked briefly in the pan to release their aroma before adding white wine, minced garlic, and Dijon mustard to create a smooth base. Heavy cream is incorporated, and the chicken returns to the pan to simmer gently, allowing sauce thickening and full cooking. The final seasoning with salt and pepper enhances the balanced flavors of creamy, tangy, and herbal elements.
Creamy Dijon Rosemary Chicken is suited for a main course served with rice, potatoes, or crusty bread to soak up the sauce. The straightforward method yields a supple chicken texture paired with a luscious sauce that highlights the distinctive rosemary and mustard combination.
Ingredients
- 2 large chicken breast cut in half lengthwise
- flour for dredging
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 3 rosemary sprigs, fresh
- 1/2 cup white wine
- 3 cloves garlic minced
- 3 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 1 cup heavy cream aka whipping cream
- salt to taste
- black pepper to taste
Instructions
- Heat the olive oil and butter over medium-high heat in a large skillet.
- Cut the chicken breasts in half lengthwise so you're left with four thinner cutlets. Dredge each piece in flour.
- Fry the chicken for 5 minutes per side and then remove it from the pan and set it aside.
- Remove the rosemary needles from the stems and add the needles to the pan. Let the rosemary cook for about a minute.
- Add the wine, garlic, and Dijon mustard. Stir it until you have a smooth sauce, and then add the cream and chicken back in the pan. Cook for another 8-10 minutes over medium-low heat until the chicken is cooked through and the sauce has thickened. Season with salt and pepper as desired.
