Ingredients
- 4 tablespoons salted butter divided
- 4 chicken breasts about 1 ½ lbs.
- kosher salt and pepper to taste
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1 ½ cups chicken stock
- ½ cup whole milk
- 2 tablespoons grainy dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon chopped parsley fresh
- 1 teaspoon chopped Rosemary fresh
- ½ teaspoon dried thyme
- ½ teaspoon paprika
Instructions
Make the chicken
- Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
- Season the chicken breasts liberally with salt and pepper.
- Transfer the chicken to the pan, and sear until browned on both sides. (We aren’t looking to cook it through, so as long as the chicken browns beautifully on both sides, we’re good. This will cook in the sauce later.)
- Remove the chicken from the pan. Place on a plate, and set aside.
Make the sauce
- Add the rest of the butter to the pan and melt.
- Measure in the flour, mixing with the butter to create a roux. Stir constantly, moving the roux around the pan for a few minutes until the flour turns a golden brown.
- Pour in the chicken stock, whisking constantly, then add the milk.
- Measure in the Dijon mustard.
- Bring the sauce to a simmer, and let thicken. This should take 5-10 minutes tops.
Finish the chicken and the sauce
- Add the chicken and whatever drippings are on the plate back into the sauce.
- Season with parsley, thyme, rosemary and paprika.
- Simmer for 20-30 minutes, or until the chicken breasts are cooked through.
- Serve warm, and enjoy!
Notes
- If you don't have fresh herbs, use 2 teaspoons parsley flakes and ½ teaspoon dried rosemary.
- This recipe can be made dairy free! To do this, swap the butter with olive oil, and use your favorite unsweetened non-dairy milk.
