Creamy Rosemary Chicken Recipe
This creamy rosemary chicken is made with seared boneless, skinless chicken breasts coated in a seasoned flour crust, then simmered in a sauce featuring shallots, fresh rosemary, white wine, chicken broth, Dijon mustard, and heavy cream. The dish offers a tender, juicy chicken texture combined with a rich, fragrant sauce that has herbal and tangy notes from the mustard and rosemary. It works wonderfully as a main course for dinner, served alongside vegetables or starches.
Ingredients
- 2 chicken breast boneless, skinless
- ¼ cup all-purpose flour
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper ground
- 4 tablespoons butter divided (½ stick, unsalted
- ⅓ cup shallot diced
- 2 tablespoons rosemary chopped, fresh
- ½ cup white wine or more chicken broth
- 1 cup chicken broth low-sodium
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- ½ cup heavy cream
Instructions
- Halve each chicken breast lengthwise to create 4 even-sized pieces.
- Whisk together the flour, salt, and pepper in a shallow bowl. Dredge both sides of the chicken in the flour mixture. Set aside.
- Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add in the chicken and sear on both sides until golden. Remove from the pan and set aside.
- Add in the remaining butter, shallot, and rosemary. Saute until the shallots soften.
- Add in the wine, and cook until evaporated, scraping the brown bits from the bottom of the pan.
- Add in the chicken broth, mustard, heavy cream, and extra salt and pepper, if desired.
- Stir to combine and simmer for 2-3 minutes until the sauce slightly thickens. Add the chicken back into the skillet. Cook, until the sauce thickens and the chicken is warmed through. When the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165℉ it is fully cooked.
Notes
- Store cooked creamy rosemary chicken in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
- Ensure chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F for safe consumption.
