Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 medium yellow onion, finely diced
- 3 pieces garlic cloves, minced
- 2 teaspoons curry powder
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 3 tablespoons honey
- 1 cup chicken broth
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions
Season both sides of the chicken breasts with salt and black pepper.
Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil and butter.
Once the butter has melted, add the chicken breasts to the skillet. Cook for 5-7 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove the chicken breasts from the skillet and set them aside.
In the same skillet, add the diced yellow onion and sauté for 3-4 minutes, or until they become soft and translucent.
Add the minced garlic and curry powder to the skillet, stirring constantly for about 1 minute until fragrant.
Stir in the Dijon mustard, honey, chicken broth, and heavy cream. Mix well to combine and bring the sauce to a simmer.
Return the cooked chicken breasts to the skillet, spooning the sauce over them. Simmer for 8-10 minutes to heat the chicken through and allow the flavors to meld together.
Remove the skillet from the heat and garnish with chopped fresh parsley.
Serve the chicken breasts with the curry honey mustard sauce over rice, mashed potatoes, or steamed vegetables.
