Instructions

  1. Slice the chicken in half lengthwise to create 2-3 thinner slices. Place the chicken in a gallon freezer bag (or in between saran wrap) and use the textured side of a meat mallet to pound it to ½ inch thick. Pat completely dry.
  2. Season each side with Lemon Pepper Seasoning. Dredge each side in the flour and tap off excess.
  3. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the chicken in batches for 4-5 minutes per side, until a golden crust has developed. Set aside and leave brown remnants in the pan.
  4. Melt the butter over medium heat and use a silicone spatula to “clean” the bottom of the pan, this will give the sauce more flavor. Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute. Add the flour and cook for 1-2 more minutes.
  5. Add the chicken broth in small splashes, stirring continuously.
  6. Add the yellow mustard, Dijon mustard, honey, and seasonings. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low. Slowly stir in the heavy cream.
  7. Optional: Taste-test the sauce. If desired, add a little more honey or mustard, depending on your taste preference. (I like to add a little more honey at this stage.)
  8. Add the chicken back and spoon the sauce on top. Cover partially and cook until heated through, about 5 minutes. Serve with roasted potatoes and green beans.

Notes

  • Pro Tips
  • Storage
  • Nutritional Information is per serving. This recipe makes 4 servings. 
  • Half and half can be used instead of heavy cream if preferred.
  • I use French's Dijon mustard and classic yellow mustard for this recipe.
  • The color of the sauce looks a little off at first when the honey and seasonings are added, but once you stir in the mustard, it works it's way into a nice yellow color.
  • Store in an airtight container and refrigerate for up to 3 days or freeze for up to 3 months. Leftovers freeze/reheat well.
  • If reheating from frozen: Thaw leftover chicken overnight in the fridge (or defrost it in the microwave) and then bake it in a small, lightly greased, covered casserole dish at 350° for 20-25 minutes.
